Hi all,
I'm having difficulty finding an effective way to stop the perceived loss of brightness when you turn down the volume on my emando (a custom built solidbody 8 string built in the mid 90s by Siegfried Dessl, a luthier in Stuttgart, Germany). I recently installed an Almuse Aggressor humbucker, and changed the value of the tone control capacitor from 47 to 22 mF, the potentiometers are 250k. Wiring in a standard-value 22nF between the sweep and output lugs of the volume pot has no appreciable value, whilst increasing the value by 2 or 3 times merely makes the volume control act as a treble cut (!) for the first part of the sweep, before reducing the volume. I've checked my wiring, everything is correct, and am both puzzled and frustrated. Has anyone got a suggestion as to what I could do differently to get the ***** thing to behave decently?
