New pots and wiring day

[gub]

Well just fitted a new pots and wiring to my lovely old antoria jazz courtesy of kiogon(,cheers mate) as the tone control was a bit iffy and wow! i really can`t believe the difference in sound it has made overall , its not something i would of thought about changing if it hadnt been for the tone issue, but before i was thinking about changing pickups but now i dont think i will even bother doing that as its sounding lovely and warm and much fuller now .
Anyone else done this and been suprised? and how can it make such a difference ?

Different sized capacitor too maybe?

I might need to do this, but not to change the pots, just to rewire.

I noticed when I took my '64P apart one of the pickups was connected by a single strand of wire. Amazingly it still works but I can feel a rewire and resoldering may be required.

Cheers
