Volume & Tone Pots for Jazz Bass

[Cloz]

Hi,
Wonder if anyone can help. Have a beautiful Mexican 60's re-issue jazz bass which I love. My only dissapointment is the volume and tone pots. What would be the best pots to use to replace these and would this affect the tone in any way (which I don't want to do). Just want a more definite and gradual change in the volume/tone than I am getting.
Cheers.

I just bought 3 of these for one of my jazz basses,

but some people prefer alpha over cts...

The key for jazz bass is to use linear taper pots for the volume controls and audio taper for the tone control.

What about P-bass? Same thing?

I just got an Ibanez Roadster short scale with a single P pup, and the tone pot was just a hole to the back cavity. The volume seems to work ok, but as long as I'm adding a pot for tone, I might as well replace the volume, too. I'm guessing a 250k should be fine. What would be a good cap to use for the tone?
