    Advice please

    If it helps anyone else with the same issue, turned out to be the selector switch of all things . Nothing to do with the actual volume pot which checked out fine . New switch and all is good. Take it easy Stu

    I would rather keep it all original, they are 300k pots , and have Gibson written on the pots so I'm not sure.....I have receipts from when it was bought new in 2000 . Nothing has been changed as far as I am aware . My first SG to add to my small collection so hopefuly will get sorted ...I'll let you all know 😊

    Hi, thanks for all the replies. Took it to a guitar tech who tested the pot with a meter and all are fine, but something defo wrong with that one volume as the other has a nice progressive roll on and off. Upshot is it is a fault in the circuit elsewhere and is under investigation.....Ill post the outcome as it may help another with the same problem Take it easy Stu

    Advice please

    Just bought a 2000 61 reissue SG . My first SG and a pretty much mint example apart from one problem . One of the volume pots is either on or off, no midway . I tried contact cleaner as the guitar has not been used for a few years but hasnt fixed the issue . Can anyone advise on a place in the U.K that sell replacement Gibson pots . I have heard upgrading the pots to 500k is the way to go but I would rather keep everything authentic and electrics are not my thing . I can set a guitar up ok but that's about it . Are the pots readily available from places like Thormans guitars in the UK ok to use ? Thanks in advance Stu
