Hi Folks...I have been wondering if I should try some 500k pots with my Custom Shop Texas Special tele pickups ?? They seem to be pretty hot and it's got me wondering ??

Well the Neck pickups is 9.5K Ohms and the Bridge is 10.5K Ohms. So it will make your pickups bright sounding if you use 500K Audio Pots.

Why not try these 375 K ohm pots from the Fender Hot Rod Tele?

Buy them from Darren Riley in Raleigh, North Carolina.
