Exactly

These are the screws for the truss rod cover and the jack plate.

I'm gonna build up a vintage mono wiring harness for my newer 4003 and I know back in the day it was the 250k on the volumes and 500k on the tones...but I noticed Ric uses the 330k's all the way around on the 4001c64...so just curious what you guys thought of the 330k.
