opened this up today and its a trainwreck of a build. i understand why the jacks always have problems especially in this pedal. the builder stuffed them in crushed against the pots, which has them sticking up against the back enclosure plate. the builder literally cut part of the inside of the metal plate so that the jacks will rest against it when closed without completely crushing. kind of blew my mind why they didn't just use a bigger enclosure size the same as the STEP pedal. When i went to close everything back up, the input jack snapped when i tried to tighten it to the enclosure. didn't do it hard and was very gentle, just kind of crumbled in my hands which was startling. have to get that fixed now the next time i run into the city to visit the local music shop here
but anyways, very difficult to photograph due to shadows. tried natural lighting first, then used a tiny flashlight to try to aim at the board under the pots themselves to light it. i know both routes are a mess, but all i have is my partners old iphone (i don't own a phone) and don't own a digital camera with a macro lens. if these are completely unusable let me know. trying my best here.
Link for full size photos is below, there are a ton of them so let me know if it isn't working or something is wrong:
