Help DIY TGD solderpads came off aahhhh
I was desoldering a wire from the pcb and both the pads came right off. I need to know if there is anything to fix this or is the pedal just fucked. Its the volume pedal. I hooked it up and everything else works through the amp noise just no volume. Help please. I have no camera at the momment so unfortunatly no way to take pics. THanks .

Follow the PCB traces to where the pads went and connect wires to the next pads in line would be my advice.

Scruffie is right for the easiest answer, but I'd add a caveat: If you aren't used to soldering, that's a delicate job. If you can find someone else to do that job for you for some beers, that might be a better idea.
