Anyone recommend upgrading the potentiometers on the Mexican jazz bass? If so, what model do you recommend?

Thanks.

i don't know any passive electronics, but i would recommend the audere preamp for active and at abbout 130 dollars it looks great and sounds good too. www.audereaudio.com/

I have a mim Jazz that I put a set of Dimarzio DP 123 pups amd for the tone pot I used a tonestyler baritone pot from Stellartone I think it works great here is the link http://store.stellartone.com/prostores/ ... tegory=all

just so you know, the audere fits right into the jazz bass control plate, and it is active, but you have to shove the battery into the control compartment .

I just bought a MIM Jazz bass, and the pots are all made by CTS - they don't get much better than that. Although I did have a cold solder joint on the body ground connection to the neck pot, so you might want to check the solder joints.
