The boring, ongoing saga of my cheap j-bass...

I got a super-cheap deal on a pair of SD SJB-3s, and figured I migh as well switch the pots at the same time.

The DC resistance is neck 13.9k, bridge 14.61k.

Should I use 250k or 500k pots?

I have little-to-no idea.

i work for crazy train music

big pickup specialists basically.

we usually recomend 250k pots for this, the 500k pots will open the top end up some more on the j bass but these pickups were intended to be used with 250k. personally i recomend sticking with the 250k pots but everyones tone is subjective.

hope your quest for theee j bass tone is found with your seymours!

Superb answer, thanks!
