Odi Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Today I replaced the potentiometers in PB with CTS 250 and a Nissin capacitor. I don't hear any change, but I feel better and more confident than with small potentiometers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will take no time at all to obtain that roadworn look.

steviedee Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) So the Jazz has arrived and snuck in the house and hidden away. Had to get rid of a buzz on the G string but otherwise seems really well put together! I've only had a few Fenders over the years so no expert so not going to make any wild claims but if someone had said it was a Fender for twice the price I wouldn't have thought anything of it. I'm a bit of a sucker for white and gold so I love the look but I did see a pic with a white pearloid scrachplate which looked lovely. Have an empty house later this evening so looking forward to having a wee blast! Edited January 25 by steviedee 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got one of these and I reckon I can keep adding levels and she might not notice. But soon I’ll need to take care of the ceiling.

steviedee Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 After waiting for ages for the Jazz to appear! It’s going back, had a look at it last night and a big f*** off crack has appeared! Pretty disappointing to be honest. No problem with Thomann offered a refund immediately as they have none in stock. Big crack aside I quite liked it so a bit disappointed they have no stock and I have to box it up! But the crack is worrying! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
