Almost everything Guitar or Bass, Electric or Acoustic in the house.. 20ish! is strung with Flats or Wounds from Adagio or Olympia What Bass? Check your Bridge to Peg length... run a little close on my T'Bird at 37.5" Ideally 38" Min.

Do the simple Resistor Mid Mod on the back of the board... and why does it need to be just in case? Bit of rattle can, and no one would know...

I'd go New Pot... some times a bump on the knob (!) Can cause the pot internals to loosen. If ya like the sound and volume action go like for like. A Log, B Lin taper, 250k?

Bright Eyes - Arty Funkle...

Strawberry Angel Delight!... Bit Salty at 8

Yeah still sparks and bites, even wearing flats... specially when played with a pick towards the bridge, and likely due to being more mid-ship P placement, than on the end of the fretboard, and wired via the A500k straight to the jack - like @Krispin mentioned in his post. I have a Artec 5 position Passive Tone Control Tone-Styler-A-Like, great for £15, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/403241742777 but didn't think i'd want to take the any darker... just play nearer the neck.

The British Sound was too pink, so got a rub-down to bare ally, then old school sticky letters... And a BeadyEye got the leftovers of a Black rattle can treatment...

Ben-Addicted

Doesnt look like any links across the pot casings to the jack, relying on the metal plate... Are the In and Out white wire tags of the vol pot linked? Shouldn't be but half looks like it from the pics

The Scramblers

Pic of the wiring?...

Non Silicon Wood Silk Bees Wax and Oils - Cheap Spray from Tesco etc... and Pop! Try some on sanded wood (obviously says not for unsealed wood and scratches... but hey, lets go!)

Yeah the P n J pups get some love, specially the Neo's I was gonna go for a mudbucker for my T'bird.. but the DiMaz 1 turned up. Warning the Entwistle's are quite deep, Here is a pic of the Std Vintage PJ set i put in my Aria J, so you can see the kinda manufacture quality. The Force is Strong

My T'Bird wearing a DiMarzio Model One. Have you thought about an Alan Entwisle's pairing of... https://entwistlepickups.com/alan-entwistle-bass-guitar-pickups/ MUD4 and a MH4?..

Attack of the 40' Woman - The Tubes

Fretboard is listed as Oiled Poplar Laminate, and was rough and dry. Quick and Light 1200 and 1500 sanding, clean with so isopropyl, and a wipe with a bit of Danish Oil left over night to seal. Had a go at the nut slots with some sandpaper to take the Roto Tru Bass strings at a hefty 65, 75, 100, 115. And a 1/4 turn or the truss rod. Son is getting into the into Dave Gilmore's playing on Pink Floyd's Hey You from the Wall Happy.
