tommorichards Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 I recently got a jazz bass, however, the 2vol 1tone thing i find a bit annoying, so i want to switch it to a blend/volume arrangement. I have all the knowledge to do this, however, although i can buy a 250k blend pot, with centre detent, off ebay, they seem a tad expensive for what they are, and i was wondering if anyone on here has one lying around after a bulk buy that i could purchase. Failing that, does anyone know of a UK store that does them for under £4 ish? Quote

tommorichards Posted June 11, 2011 Author Posted June 11, 2011 Yeah, i was looking at that, and although i could possibly get around using a 500k pot, as well as the fact its meant for PCB mounting, i just wanted to check out there for what im looking for, thanks anyway. Quote

When I was last looking for pot/DPDTs I couldn't find anything cheaper than that. Quote
