I just got a P-Bass, its about 25 years old and it seems to need new pots and an output jack. I'll be heading to the music store in a few days and I'm not sure what to get. What brand, what size? I don't want to hot rod it I just want regular pots. Any advice would help. Also any advice on wiring will also be appreciated it has one humbucker. Thanks

Tim

Bring it in to your local music store, their tech(s) should be able to help you. If you don't feel comfortable with their advice - some places have less then reputable people working there - go to another store. I hate advising this but GC for most of the time will have the parts you need, but they don't hire qualified people that can give you good advice, they hire some hs kid that might not even play the bass or any other instrument. Not all the time tho, you might get lucky @ GC. Another option, get the opinion of the tech, ask them if he would/could install the parts if you had bought it elsewhere. GC most likely would have the better price too, unless your local store can beat the price. You don't have to hot rod it, just ask them for the stock if not oem parts.

Good luck, sorry for the ramble.
