Red Llama Vero issues

Hey guys, first timer here.

So I have laid out the Red Llama on vero as per http://tagboardeffects.blogspot.ca/2012/06/way-huge-red-llama.html. The only two things I changed was a 1M resistor instead of the 1M5 and a 47pf instead of a 51pf. However nothing is working. Using GGG build instructions PDF (https://www.generalguitargadgets.com/pdf/ggg_whrl_instruct.pdf?phpMyAdmin=78482479fd7e7fc3768044a841b3e85a) I have found my IC voltage readings to be fairly similar, however pin 9 reads zero and pin 16 reads 5.7. I am not sure if the two layouts use different pins or if I really boned this project up.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

two things we always say here, oi,

hello, and welcome,

and go here, follow instructions, come back and report. have photos of what you've built handy, cause we'll ask for them anyway. and we'll want a circuit diagram, too.

Are you sure you've got your pin numbering correct? It goes 1 to 8 down the left hand side, then 9 to 16 up the right hand side so pin 9 is bottom right and pin 16 top right. I only ask because your pin 9 and 16 voltages only make sense if you swap them round, then they look Ok.

Welcome aboard :)

Hey, I was not aware of that. So yes, that solves that issue I suppose.

I will be back with all that is needed for you wonderful people to help me out, when I have the time.
