[sup][quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1421504010' post='2662051'] Are they long scale or shorter scale? [/quote][/sup] They are long scale [quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1421509818' post='2662112'] I think 760FM are a darker blue. [/quote] The blue quite a bit darker than the picture would suggest If that helps

[quote name='goingdownslow' timestamp='1416606503' post='2611941'] Ahh... I thought you were after an amp tech in the Bogner Regis area. [/quote] Me too nearly made myself look very silly...........again

I cant give any clever technical help but my experience is very similar I was given an old mex jazz in need of some tlc so after sorting neck, frets etc I found that the volume controls did 80% of their control over the last 10% of their travel and the tone control did almost nothing. On inspection I discovered it was not wired up correctly so decided to buy new CTS pots and cap and rewire, the result of which was the overall tone dropped down a little (not a bad thing) and generally a nicer tone to my ears but the volume controls acted exactly the same and tone pot now had an impact but only after the last 30% of its travel. I then tried an Audere JZ pre but after a while decided I preferred the Passive tone and therefore back to square one. I have now fitted one of Kiogons vol blend tone kits already set up on a new bell plate result is I now have a progressive vol control, a far more effective and progressive tone control and I wish I had done this at the beginning. I think my feeling is there are a number of ways to set these things up and that no 2 electrical components are the same and therefor the way they interact will be different so experiment till you achieve what you require

Bought a wiring kit from John for my old mex jazz arrive next day very well made and does exactly what John said it would My thanks John

I had a great time quieter than last year but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Thanks to Nik and all for the organization

Thanks for that Dave have contacted a couple of similar sites still waiting for a response

In an attempt to help out a friend whose father recently passed away I find myself with 3 pedal steel guitars a Peavey Nashville amp and a height adjustable fold up seat to sell to try and offset funeral expenses etc. Now I know absolutely nothing about these things except that they are bloody heavy in their flight cases, I am hoping that someone can suggest a person , forum, website or whatever I can talk to with regard to the value, saleability of these items I believe they are made by Carter 2 are singles with 10 strings a piece and 1 is a double also 10 strings a piece and all look to be complete although I have yet to try and assemble them. Any help or suggestions much appreciated John
