Trimming of the lead notwithstanding, does this look like a properly installed trim pot? This is the A side and the bent over lead is under the screw.

I don't see any issues.  Even if you bend the middle lead to the wrong side and solder it down, the amp will still work 100% properly, you'll just have to adjust the trim pot the other way to get the desired result when setting the bias.

Cool, thank you. Mostly wanted to make sure I interpreted the instructions correctly.
