Electronic upgrade??

GS STRINGS · 10-29-2009, 05:06 AM

I'm somewhat new to guitar upgrades,I understand the tone benefits of changing pups and caps.I have a Rondo SX Deimos that I have swapped out the pups and put in some pio caps.I think she really sounds great now and I don't have any unwanted noise or anything.It has the mini pots in it with no name or markings I can see.My question, is it a real improvement to replace them with some full size Alpha pots? Is there a tone improvement or is it just a dependability issue?

if you don't tweak the pots much and they are the right reading swappping them won't do much. If you do go for it!!
