Yikes!

Dude. Hook 9V to the wrong spot in the string, and you can definitely blow a filament or two. Or three. (That's assuming your 9V is a 'hard' source like a battery, wall wart etc.)

Thanks for the input.

I think what I will do next will be to replace all four units of the lytic (perhaps they are filtering out the ripple as they should, but allowing electrons in the B- to flow to + as they shouldn't), and DeOxit the pins of the 1L6 socket and the bandswitch.

I meant to connect to where the battery hooks up... not in the middle of the string O_o
