and it's quick, easy and reverseable should you not like
it.....Jazzmasters will go from a nice clean sound to mud as soon as
you back off the volume pot in stock form.....Jazzmasters use a 1
meg pot. What I do is to put a 1 meg resistor from the outside
terminal to ground and add a 1000 pico farad ceramic cap across the
the outside terminal and wiper termial. This mod gives a smooth
fade and doesn't loose the highs as you back off the volume
control....the down side is a thin sound at VERY low volume control
settings.....for me the advantage is huge compared to the drawbacks
and you can get this hardwar at any Radio Shack.......big time
fun......try it......Eddie K
