sykofiddle Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 I've been slowly working on the 2002 H-535 I recently acquired. I put a Seth Lover pickup in the neck and that was a noticeable improvement over the Schaller. Now I'd like to do something about the dramatic loss in high frequency response when I turn down the volume on the neck pickup. If I go down to 8 it sounds like I turned the tone down to about 3. I remember hearing that getting better pots, or different capacitors, or something can make a big difference. Is there a straightforward answer to this? thanks, Michael
Thundersteel Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Try the RS Electronics upgrade kit. A lot of people swear by it.
skydog Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 What Thundersteel said. It's my next "project".
sykofiddle Posted February 12, 2008 Author Posted February 12, 2008 Thanks for the tip! Sounds like it's a pretty clear choice...
Heritage525 Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 All you need to do is a "treble bleed mod", I have done it numerous times, recently on my 535 that I put Seth Lovers on! All it intails is adding a .001 cap. across the volum pot. Very easy to do, extremely effective. If you do a goole search for Treble Bleed Mod, you should find lots of info. It works great, super cheap (the caps can be found a Radio Shack), very effective.
