I did a mostly smt cmoy a while back (standard size power caps) on a .8cm by 2cm self etched board (first attempt at making own boards, wasnt pretty). This didnt include the jacks, pot, switch, etc, its still sitting somewhere on my desk...

Try cleaning the underpart of the amp. Get some alcohol and a toothbrush and clean the soldered part to remove debris or flux. Also, scratch in between the traces with a blade to make sure nothing is touching and shorting. This actually solved the problem on a recent amp, the sound was very staticky and fuzzy, but this cleared it right up.
