    500k vs 250k pots?

    let me clarify- I've had the pickups in for about two years, and the crunchiness is about a month old. I do play with my pickups pretty high, but the bridge is higher than the neck, and I don't get the same crunchy sounds from the bridge when I roll the neck all the way off. not only that, but...

    500k vs 250k pots?

    i'm going to jump in on this thread with a similar, more detailed question. i've got a jazz bass with the original pots in them, and the neck pickup sounds distorted, and crunchy when turned, so i figure i need to change it out. the pickups, however, are not original. they're seymour duncan hot...

    Webb cabinet info?!

    I've been meandering around the internet for, oh, about 4 hours now, and it's a bit of a problem finding any concrete info about Webb cabinets. This is what I know (or, I think I know): -Started by "Jimmie D." Webb out of Antioch, CA. -made typical speaker combos at first, then moved on to...

    Lakland 44-01

    hey jim, it seems that you know your old 44-01 pretty well. i can't find anyone who's played aggressive tapping or chord strumming on one, though. that's the bulk of what i'd use it for. i was using a fender jazz for that music before, but now the fender is set up solely for a different band...

    Official Tobias Club

    i want in! my lacewood killer b is my soulmate. i couldn't imagine playing music without it. i mean, i guess i can, but it would be a banal existence. i knew i wanted a tobias since i was 16, and around 22 i decided to go play every one i could find in chicago in one day. this was the sixth...

    Tobias growler owner serial database

    i've got a lacewood killer b, serial number 6328 (dangerously close to someone else's 6325, small world). i always thought it was around '98, but it seems perhaps not? another post said the serial numbers are 001-010 and a date, but mine doesn't seem to subscribe to that.
