For some freaking reason the pot works backwards.
Any ideas as to why?

Hmm...not sure cause the pic is blurry, but it looks like you may have your R3 and R4 values reversed....that's probably your problem....

Noted.... pict replaced. Click it to see the full size image.
BTW, you can see the back of the board here if it helps.

mounting everything on the right side of the board might help for starters....

He, he....I know it's not nice to make fun of other people but I just could'nt stop laughing when I saw picture number two...
Thanx misterX you made my day so much easier.
Now for the serious bit. You'll have to rewire the pot to make it work normally.... Connect it as it should have been if you placed the pot on the other side.

since you are mounting everything on the back side of the board, the pins on the pot are being connected in reverse. you can reconnect the pot on the "right side" of the PCB or you can re-wire them like McKajVah suggested

Whoa, good thing you didn't use DIPs for your buffers or opamps!
I also like how you strategically reversed the transistor direction as well...

Wondered where all the writing was on the PCB, I thought it was a home made one. Why did you do it like that? is that kinda weird?

he probably built so many amps that he wanted to see if he can build one without the pcb markings AND flipping the polarities.

Sorry, bad joke gone very wrong.
I planned on wiring the pot the whole time.
There was a point to the whole thing.
I managed to cram 25 volt caps into a Serpac H65 case by trimming the board and placing all of the components on the wrong side.
Besides that the bottom of the amp looks very cool with the silkscreen showing through.
To bad the wires on the top side look like crap.
