MP573 Microphone preamplifier / MP573 trim pot Faulty?

Hello,
I've just finished building and testing my mp573. Everything works fine except the trim pot.
At the extremes (-10/10+) the signal passes for all inputs at all switch positions,
but when the trim pot is set at '0' the signal is clipped and extremely distorted.
The gain difference at -10 vs 10+ is not any different either. Same metering on my interface at -10 as 10+.
I'm assuming this is a faulty pot.
