I have an 80's SB-2 that I love, but I suspect that the last owner modified the pots as they're different heights. The J pickup doesn't seem to have the punch I'd expect (it's a little muted).
Does anyone have the actual parts used in the SB-2T? I see a schematic for the SB-2 and a picture of the SB-2T but no schematic for the three-knob variant.
Thanks!

Re: Schematic for SB-2T
Contact Memo Romero [G&L Service Manager] and ask him if has a digital copy of the SB-2T mod schematic he can send you.pacific202 wrote:I have an 80's SB-2 that I love, but I suspect that the last owner modified the pots as they're different heights.

His email address is: repairs@glguitars.com .
If you do get a schematic, please post it here, so I can add it to our Gallery.
Hope this helps.

Re: Schematic for SB-2T
Memo replied very quickly. He wasn't able to provide a schematic but did add this technical info:
The SB2t requires a .022 micro farad capacitor and the tone pot is a 250kA ohm pot

Re: Schematic for SB-2T
Thanks for this additional information on the Tone circuit. I added it to the SB-2T Photo Diagram in the Gallery. I also moved this postpacific202 wrote:Memo replied very quickly. He wasn't able to provide a schematic but did add this technical info:
