Hey wiring experts! Question for ya...

[cmatthes]

I'm wiring up a Tele with a Filtertron in the neck and a double blade GFS Tele bridge pickup in, well, the bridge.

With otherwise standard Tele controls, what would you recommend in there, two 500k pots, right?

What value cap?

Thanks much!

I would go with the 500k pots and see how you go, try a .047 cap..it's an easy change on a tele as you are no doubt aware, if you find that the blade pickup is a bit harsh ( sorry, I haven't heard them so no idea ? ) then try changing one of the pots for a 250k..

It can be a bit of SIAS till you find what works best for you..

Cheers

Mick

500...501 whatever it takes.

Some incite on pots and caps that might lead to a different solution than the defaults or confuse even more...

my advise,

500k audio for volume,

500k linear for tone,

022. sprauge vitamin Q cap, wired up tele style.

3 way selector switch

this would sound very good.
