custombuiltguitars Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 did some wiring mods a few minutes ago. Replaced the 500k tone pot with a 250k. Added a treble bleed (with vintage stuff) and played with tone caps until I found one that wasn't mud all the way down. Settled on a .01 mfd. Vintage again. I have a small assortment of these that were in my grandfathers collection of everything. Terrible pic, but here it is.... Now with the tone all the way down it sounds wah like, not muddy. And the tone pot changes the tone throughout the entire range. Instead of all being bunched up at the ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

custombuiltguitars Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 Pic looks good to me....is that Reynolds Wrap for cavity sheilding? yeah it is, but I didn't really need it. As I tied the 2 pots together anyways. Reynolds wrap works. Not as well as other alternatives. But this build is all about the "Low Budget". Which happens to be my favorite Kinks tune.....
