Fender Jazz Bass volume knob "peak"

Hello all, I have recently purchased a used '07 Fender Jazz Bass MIM and am having a slight problem with my volume pots.

When the volume is all the way down, there is no volume, but the volume from about 1-9 is almost exactly the same, up until I max it and it reaches max volume. This is happening with both pickups, but not the tone knob.

I'm assuming I need to install new pots, but I just wanted to see what you guys thought about it before taking apart my new bass. Thanks!
