Hello.Im new to this site and excited for some info...thankyou for advice in advance.I have a 1968 fender mustang bass blue in color with the California stripes on it.I recently took it apart in order to clean the silver parts on it.I replaced some rounded off screws etc.I took it into my local music store to have a wire soldered on the pickup and restrung.Heres my problem.The store took my original tone compasiter off of my tone switch and said that it didn't have a controlled Sound and that the one that he replaced it with sounded better.(true it makes a difference,however.Was my original worth money?Will it affect the price of my bass if I ever we'll it? :wink:

(this question should more correctly be posted within the "Other Fender Basses" section of the forum)

Your original tone cap may have had some intrinsic value but if it no longer served its intended purpose and required replacement, I wouldn't worry a whit about it. Your bass's value is not likely to be affected by the change.
