4) The upper roller pots are 850k, but I couldn't read the other values
on the lower pots for all the wires!
Hi,
Having a CIJ "P" series myself, I noticed that the uper rollers have a
1x500K and 1x1K pots. I asume the factory changed these when the went to
the "Q" series.
As for the trem spring, there seams to be a lot of difference there,
even among CIJ models. I had no problem whatsoever to put 0.11 flats on
my "P" series JM. I only had to tweak the tuss rod a bit. A friend of
mine has replaced all his MIJ/CIJ tailpieces with MIA and even there are
differences between the springs and there tension. These are very
notable. My MIJ Jag has a noteable heavier spring then the CIJ JM.
I asume that they adjust the parts in the factory, perhaps because of
shortage or as an improvement. The Upper (rythem cuircuit) sounds very
mellow with the 500k/1Meg controls (with the CIJ pups), perhaps the 850K
are smoother?
