Little Dragon Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 What would be the best tone pot value for a MM style pickup, with seperate volume per coil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiliwailer Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Assuming it’s passive, Ernie Ball use this on the USA shorty: Passive 500kohm push/push volume POT for gain boost, 100kohm tone POT - 0.1uf tone cap The passive Joe Dart has: 100k ohm Volume pot The Dart may have a lower value as there is no other pot in the chain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Dragon Posted April 18, 2023 Author Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) I also have an OLP with the same pickup and tone set up but when I have opened it up, it is impossible to read values on either the cap or pot.

PaulThePlug Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Passive? Have you considered an Atec QTP... Bypass and 4x Resistor / Capacitor Combination settings.... more tonal variance than a Port with a fixed value capacitor... about £18 I have one in my Ibby SR300 'Passive P' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Dragon Posted April 18, 2023 Author Share Posted April 18, 2023 Passive , yes. Is this similar to a Varitone? Can't find on Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
