It looks like your soldering needs to be redone. I would trim all your component leads to avoid a short. Then clean up the wires to the foot switch. You will need to reflow every joint and double check you don’t have any solder bridges(where solder connects two or more components that are not supposed to be connected)
Yeah. Your soldering is not good. Look at the solder joints on the 7 and 8 eyelets. You can probably pull the wire out of the input jack's ring terminal just by tugging on it. You're either not holding the iron to the joints long enough, or if you have an adjustable iron, you've got the heat set too low. And as mention, you definitely need to clean up the excess wire sticking out. You don't need to redo your wiring entirely, but next time, try not to strip so much off the ends. You have an uncomfortable amount of exposed wire.
