munkonthehill Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 (edited) Hola all, I posted this in the technical section but thought i would try here too. I am using a Fender Jag that has 2 pots which are the master volume and the tone pot. I seen this item on ebay and was thinking of removing the tone pot which I rarely use as its not overly effective and replacing it with one of these. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Artec-VTC-Onboard-Active-Tube-Sound-Overdrive-Tone-Pot-/390258527769?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item5add388e19"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Artec-VTC-Onboard-Ac...=item5add388e19[/url] Does anone have any knowledge of these or if this upgrade would be possible.

geoffbyrne Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Yes, I have one of these currently in the drawer, but I had it on a Telecaster & it worked just great - main prob. is fitting the battery into the control route. Pretty transparent, simply ups the gain as you turn it. Pull to bypass. It's as simple as that. My Strat has a Varitone, which I soldered up myself from a Torres kit [url="http://torresamps.com/"]http://torresamps.com/[/url] and [url="http://torresamps.com/guitar_modification_kits.htm"]http://torresamps.com/guitar_modification_kits.htm[/url] on the mid-knob position, and the Artec QTA [url="http://www.artecsound.com/pickups/index.html"]http://www.artecsound.com/pickups/index.html[/url] on the bottom knob. Good stuff, Artec - they make the pickups for Guitar Fetish. G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
