monkey69962000 Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 hey my samick which is a strat, is wierd on the knobs. Wehn you go to far on the either tone knob the other one moves. What can cause that. I will take it apart after im done with my new LP kit to fix it, but i curious if anyone knows what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killahworm Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 i think maybe i know the answer, if its the same problem i have with my crappy LP copy. when you turn the knobs to the max, you can turn it further, thus moving the pot, if this is the problem, the wood they used wasn't perfectly dry when they put in the pots, so it is expanding and contracting as the humidity and temperature changes. by the way is this the right usage of the word thus? I am from Norway and english is my second language... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeB Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 yep, spot on killah! the pot will be slipping and hitting the other pot, and moving it. take the knob off and tighten the nut holding it on, these come loose at times, it happened exactly the same on my old samick. its on the scratchplate so wood changes wouldnt do it, its usually due to turning the pot too much and loosening the nut. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killahworm Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 okay, but on my shitty LP it comes loose and fastens acording to seasons... when its dry, like in winter is loose, but in summer its nice and tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am from Norway and english is my second language... im not a vocabulary man, vut i think thats the right way to say thus, im not positive, but when u said it, i didnt notice an error, so most likely you said it correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
