Hi there, What kind of cap comes with Fender retail pots at the store? Who makes them? Thank you.

Thanks so much for the diagram!!! Excellent. I take this stuff seriously, I'll work on it tell I pass out. lol So leave the 250k with no cap, I have heard people doing that somewhere. Hey if I still kept the wiring as if I still was separating the tone pots and then changed the 250k to 500k, You think it would better or worse than a stock setup? I hope I explained that right....HAHAHAHHA Thanks for your help again.

Oh I see. I did a wiring set up where the humbucker has a 500k only and the singles only have 250k. Maybe this is a shoddy setup. I found it on the Warmouth forums. I am trying to post a picture to the diagram I used. I hope it works. http://s297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/s...uitarwiring.jpg

I guess so!!! lol

Did you get this fixed? Sometimes it's as simple as you input wire where the jack is. I had one guitar like that. Sometimes it gets tugged on too much when your working on other wiring. I know I did it. lol

Hi again lol I wrote the guy who came up with the Fezz Parka mod for Tele's and asked if the wire position would be the same for Strats.He hasn't replied yet and I'm too curious. All I could find was a mod for a strat and about a blender pot added. It's the mod for when you roll off the volume and you lose treble. I have the diagram for the tele mod and it seems to me I would just add the wire like they did for the tele. None of this blender pot thing. Oh and my humbucker is on it's own tone pot and the single coils have their own also. I know I can put a cap and resistor, But I would like to try this. Here's an example of the tele: http://www.singlecoil.com/docs/tele-tone2.pdf

Yes the opening up of the pot, I read about that. Now that I think of it I'm not that ambitious. lol Thanks for the help.

Thanks. I used 22 from a computer power supply that just died. I had cut the wire before I threw it out because something told me I was going to use it. Now if I can find use for 20 others things I've saved "Just in case". lol Thanks. You confirmed my thoughts about it. Thanks for everyone's time. +1 In the perfect wire resistance, capacitance, and inductance = 0 ... in short runs as is in a guitar these 3 values are pretty close to that. A good guitar cable is more important. Hahahahahaha!!! I kind of figured no difference. I appreciate the replies. Another load of BS again. I mean the gauge thing. lol

I just re-wired an old Squier Strat myself and used 22 gauge as what I read or told should be. Someone told me I should have gone with an 16 or 18 gauge and it will sound better. What are your thoughts on this. I was told by a few people that was bull. Thanks for reading.

I don't think it's possible to make a 250k pot into a 500k pot, I thought I read that. I know you can take a 500k and go down to 250k with resistors. I kept finding this post on a forum where this guy says yes you can. Can someone confirm this? Thanks ahead of time.
