I just picked up my guitar today from the tech who installed new pups. Now, when the tone knob on the bridge pup is turned all up the way to 10, it sounds really bassy. If you roll it back to 8, the treble kicks in again. Does that mean I need a new pot or can it be something else? And what is a ballpark figure for replacing the pot (parts and labor)? Does one normally replace all 4 at the same time, or just the defective one? Thanks.
