No. If you left the 10μF cap on pin-9 I can see what you think is pin-9.Would you like a 'clean' board with the 3.5mm lead etc removed too?
I am also looking for shorts or bad solder joints around the IC - as well as trying to reverse engineer the circuitry.
The way the orange, black and red wires were connected seemed odd to me.
Pin-8 should have been connected to one end of the pot (clock-wise for max volume)
Pin-9 should have been connected to the wiper (centre connection) of the pot.
The other end of the pot should have been connected to GND.
