Could someone verify this for me please?

I'm using the GGG LPB-2 layout found here.

I'm using the GGG ground true bypass layout found here.

Since the true bypass is a generic layout, I'm assuming that the board output goes to lug 3 of the volume pot and lug 2 goes out to the switch, but where does lug 1 ground to? On the LPB-2 layout, there are five ground pads and on the bypass layout (and the PCB) there are only four ground pads.

Thanks for the help.

You can ground lug 1 just as in the lpb-2 layout. The number of gound pads doesn't matter. There could be one or a hundred, they are all grounded. Having them all come from one central point as a technique called "star grounding" where all the gounds come to one central point. This eliminates ground loops in which signals can run around and cause hum.
