Fender P+J Tone Pot Replacement

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

Recently replaced the two volume pots on my battered old fretless P + J (it is now apparent that the P output was previously extremely weak) and was having a blast until...the tone pot seemed to seize.

So any recoomendations on a tone pot replacement, do I just go for a standard:

Fender 250k Solid Shaft Potentiometer Genuine CTS Potentiometer
Fender 500kSolid Shaft Potentiometer Genuine CTS Potentiometer

or

the DiMarzio equivalents

or

any other recomendations for configurations i.e Tone Vol per pick up set.

I was very happy with the sound already but if she has any more variations to give I'll accept them!

Thanks

NV

Have a look [url="http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/product/CTS_Premium_250k_Solid_Shaft_Pot_CTS250SS"]HERE[/url]

They seem to be just the ticket.
