Thanks to Impala, Jim and Mark. Great advice. So Nancy WAS stock!

I agree that the swell effect would be easier to pull off with the amp's volume controls completely dimed. Unfortunately I don't play in large enough venues to do that. But I'll take your advice and keep the pots as they are, and instead just keep on playing it until the pots loosen up some for a smoother dial-in.

As regards the Gatton/Roy relationship I read in the Carson bio that Gatton's guitar tech allegedly ruined a/the pickup on Nancy one time when Roy leant her to Gatton, which is what I thought caused bust up between them. Roy retired her soon after.

Who knows? Thanks once again.
