Click to expand...

personally, I'd just go with the old standard pots...

250k audio taper for the volume
250k linear taper for the tone
and use a 0.047uF capacitor on the tone circuit.

your squier probably is loaded with a
250k audio for both volume and tone and either a 0.047uF or a 0.1uF capacitor...nothing wrong with this, if you can deal with the taper on the volume...
