"I think that you may have reversed the Collector and Emitter readings of Q703."
Yes, I wrote it down in my notes right but copied it to the post wrong, lol.

"The rest of the voltages are pretty much what they should be. The 60 on the emitters is a typo, I think it should be 0.6 volts"
Ok, that does make sense

"Is the current problem now a fuzzy distortion that is constantly there in the background and not just a distortion on peak signals?"
That is correct

"And for now I would remove the cap and resistor from the output jack."
Yes, I did, and no change
