xsouldriverx · 08-07-2009, 06:32 PM

so i want to re-wire my guitar (tele neck pup, hb bridge) with some new rs parts

im looking for one volume, one tone, and one 3 way switch set up. but i was wondering what value caps and pots to use since im an HB with a single coil.

How hot is the bucker. I have the same setup in a strat and used a 350k but with a 20k pup so I am running hot. I tend to like the 350 value better on the 14k and up and the 500k for everything else. Hope that helps

xsouldriverx · 08-07-2009, 08:28 PM

bridge bucker is 10k with an A5 mag tele neck is 7k with an a5.

is there use in going with different pot values. say 500k volume 250 tone. or maybe the rs 280 super pot volume and 500k tone? im pretty sure im going to get a .022 cap so it would be a nice compromise.

captcoolaid · 08-07-2009, 08:33 PM

I would go with the 500k volume and a 250k tone.

their old stuff is kind of modern but the last 3 or so albums have had a heavy blues taste to them. i like it a lot and its a really good + cheap live show when they come.
