Level Control Non HRM

Post by talbany »

The last several Non Hrm 100w builds I used a 500K OD level pot instead of the stock 250.. I thought the 250k's sweet spot was about 3/4 of the way up.. Didn't matter Audio or Linear...
With the 500 in there the tone was much thicker with more girth especially for single coils.. This stuck the knob at 12:00...you can always of coarse play around with the 150-180k that feeds the pot for the same result.. At first I thought it was that particular amp but am warming up to it on the 3rd one now..Keep in mind this only applies to the 100 watters...Thought I would share my results.. Give it a try...
