After one of many mods my tele volume pot seems to have a very uneven taper - the first quarter turn puts the volume at about 10%.
I think it was when I changed it to 50s wiring, but I've now changed it back and there's no change. I don't think I changed the pot. The one that's there now is a 250k audio pot -and I think that's what it should be, right? I think the tone pot is the same but much of the writing is obscured.
Over the last few days I've tried a few different wirings, but no change.
So could it be the pot? Or something else in the wiring? Diagram below (I've got texas specials and a 4 way switch at the moment, hence the extra wires. The issue I'm having pre-dates the installation of the specials).
Any suggestions?
