heh, if it wanst the ic chip or any other components, i have an idea
1) learn how to trace circuit
2) Go trace the circuit
3) Clone yourself a tone press
4) I spare you components(breadboard, ics, transistors, pots, resistors, caps, perfboard, jacks, casing to do the pedal) you go do the clone. Yes, only if you are the on doing the clone, i spare you everything.
5) be a happy fella to clone a pedal which works and know that theres nothing wrong with the world, everything is just the basic flaws of human, and that include the bad habit of washing dirty laundary in open forum
instead of solving problem ,we is love witch hunting!! Burn motherpiaker!!! Burnnnnnn
