Hi all ,
Just got a Starfire Bass ( used 2012 ) and have had to do a lot of "tweaking" to get it as I want it to play .
Put La Bella flats on , cut nut down , lowered wooden saddles etc etc . :beguiled:
One question .........the volume does not turn down the sound untill the last 1/8th of movement , and the tone control has no effect whatsoever .:crazy:
Shall I replace with CTS 250K log pots and a .047 cap ( being that the resistance of pickup is about 6.4 K ) , or has anyone got a better solution .
I love the looks of the Bass and the feel of the neck , and the sound ( when both controls are full on ) but would like to get some variation at some time .
