#22 starts at 0 ohms for a moment before slowly climbing up a bit. It was stopping at .8, and I considered going forward since it was still <1, but I figured I'd google first, no reason to rush this last part after working on the amp right? I found a thread here where the person had off readings on 22, realized they needed to tighten the corresponding screw on the bell, and that was it. I tightened all my screws on the bell and my resting reading is 1.1 ohms now...I loosened them some, but the reading stayed at 1.1

I'm not sure where to begin, since there aren't connections on 22, I'm not sure where to start looking in terms of something maybe being soldered wrong, or something like that. Any ideas? Thanks!

That's close enough to 0 for that terminal to be effective.

Thank you so much! Upon your information that it was low enough, I went ahead and moved on to my powered resistance checks, and those went fine as well...now I'm here cranking some tunes!
 
I almost don't want to work with the speedball now, I feel I may have used up all my luck on the build  ;) No hissing, blackness with the pot turned up all the way, etc.

I'm still going to do it though. . . next week.

Thanks again!
