Debuggend LM3875 SE amp still bugs !

  Can't figure out where I'm missin' it !
 Voltage on pin 3 output is 15 or so, same with the inputs, using 3x9v for 28 V supply.
 I wrapped my red/black wires across a battery [red to button of 1 battery, black to buttonhold of a battery], third battery in the middle = off switch...2 pieces of duct tape and a battery..
 yupp, triple checked all the grounds, have the 1k/10uf to gnd. off pin 8, the "20k's plus a 50pf triangle between 8 and 3, 3 has the *2.7ohm [actually *1.6ohm/ .1uf to gnd.
 Iow, been back 'n forth on it and figure theres a trick i'm missing, but I see no mute pin, everything else is as shown on the single supply application diagram...except only little clickies when power up/power down, thumbuzz and Telecaster at input makes no output.
 Hmmmmmmmmmmmm static sensative, I tried to not touch the pins and did the whole shebang on a damp cutting board...Hmmmmmm

If we had much of the information from "what to do when it doesn't work" it would be easier.

Just a thought.

  No good when it was cold solder on pin 4, packed behind and within with hidden probe finding ground strand...it's all in the timing of the beep, very small difference in timing between the stray-ed strand and pin 4.
