I would like to re-wire my Jazz Bazz with a balance pot instead of the two separate volume pots. In other words: One master volume, a balance pot and a master tone. I think it's posible to use a linear stereo pot for balance and wire it so there is no loss of volume while sweeping fron one mic to the other. Does anybody have any suggestions for the wiring?
You are absolutely right Chasarms! I will need a special blendpot. What is the term used for describing and refering to a pot without resistance beyond the center dent? Where can I get these. Stewart Mc Donald?
Stew mac has them, but unless you are ordering a significant amount of supplies, they can be cost prohibitive.
Allparts makes them. Any European Allparts destributor out to be able to get you one. I have always seem them refered to as a "blend" or "blender" pot. "Balance" might be another word.
I have never seen them in linear though, only log. (audio) I wouldn't worry over the volume issue using a log pot. It would be negligable IMO.
It might be helpful, I do not now the values of the balance pot though...but I think it must be either a dual 250K or a dual 500K. I am sure someone else knows this.
Oh, well glad to help out! Hope you find the values of the pots needed. I think I will try it out if I buy a Jazz in the future. I will also wire it for series/parallel with help from a pull switch combined with the tone pot. Might be cool.
Guitarelectronics.com was a nice page with lots of wirings. Stumbled over it actually.. good luck!
