SC3 - Pot Values?

Post by Danley »

It's tough to read on the schematic posted to this site; are they in fact 1 meg?

I agree, the schematic just isn't clear enough to confidently make the call one way or the other.

You may try emailing repairs@glguitars.com with the question, From what I understand they are quite helpful in these matters.

Hey Danley,

Both pots are definitely 250kΩ Audio taper. The volume has a 200pF ceramic cap. On the tone pot, I've seen it 2 ways: either .020µF in parallel with .001µF or a .022µF cap in and by itself. But it gives you an idea of the range. The numbers on schematic are for the caps; no values for the pots are indicated.

Hope this helps,

- Jos
