Cool deal on the fix, but if it's only a series FX loop I do not know that I would spend the time on it as they always sound like crap at least to me, but it can depend on where where they are stuffed into the signal chain somewhat!

I added another 20uf/500 JJ cap tp the filter section with a 1k/3watt resistor to keep my voltage drop to a minimum and separated the 1st and second preamp stages from the "D" node of power. NOW everything is very nice. I will move onto making the fx loop work next!!!

Just to be clear, did you separate the first and second stages on both channels from the D node?
