RE: Robin's build #003 (take 2)

@nsj I've got to ask, where did you find these weirdo pots? These were amongst a job lot of harnesses from ebay, somebody clearing out their junk boxes. I've only got myself to blame.

RE: Neck wood

@robin how sure are you? It's how they sound that I notice them. Audio taper sounds gradual, Linear sounds like a switch lol. Every A and B pot I've used has sounded as it should.
