jonnythenotes Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Hey guys.... I have a Fender Jazz Select, and even with both pickups wound back into the 'off' position, the tone knob still seems to act as a volume control. Very little gets through with all the bass removed, but as you wind the tone control round to increase the treble sound, it also introduces volume back into.the mix.... So to recap, both volume controls 'off', yet the tone control is acting like a volume control, particularly when turned in the 'treble' direction..... Any ideas on what the problem is, and how to rectify...Thanx... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnythenotes Posted September 5, 2018 Author Share Posted September 5, 2018 Thanks Donslow..... I will whip the chrome cover off and have a visual inspection of the wiring.... I recently moved to France, so might be a bit of a trek for me to get it too you, but thanks for the very kind offer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
