    mim bridge vs squier affinity bridge?

    hey guys, I've looked around for this andwer and haven't found anything. Anyways, I've been wondering if there's a big difference between the bridges found on mim basses and squier affinity basses.

    why are 250k linear solid shaft pots so hard to find?

    well, i wanted them for when i rewire my jazz bass, and i'd prefer that the knobs were set screw knobs... i might just have to go the brass sleeve route.

    why are 250k linear solid shaft pots so hard to find?

    if i recall correctly, it's better to use linear pots for volume? so why are they so hard to find? i seriously cant find any solid shaft 250ks, or at least any made by cts. do any of you guys know where to find them?

    resolder leads

    can this be done if a lead on a pickup falls off? this won't damage the pickup, will it? sorry if this is a dumb question...

    pickup cover removal? (not the metal ones)

    so i just got a great deal on a squier jazz bass, but i realized i couldnt take off the cover! i was gonna use it for a pickup that i bought. apparently, though, squier epoxies the cover on? any ideas on how to get it off?

    replacing squier affinity tuners?
