ossie Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Hi all, Have a beautiful mexican 60's re-issue Jazz which I love. My only dissapointment is the pots. Could anyone advise me on the best replacement pots to get, seems like CTS is the standard and linear for volume and audio for tone. Any advice would be much appreciated, also, would changing the pots change the tone which I don't want to do. Cheers. Ossie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the Sprague orange drop caps though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
