620 rewiring project
Posted: Wed Feb 25, 2015 3:00 pm
I've reworked the insides of my 620 yet again and this time I think I've nailed what I'm going for. I'd started using a 20-foot cable and the dullness was bugging me so I've gone to:
1M Vol/Tone pots
500K 5th knob
10n Polystyrene tone caps
560pF cap/470K resistor (parallel) for the treble bleed.
Plenty of brightness that sounds really natural as the volume is rolled off. The tone control is also much more subtle and usable to me.
Contemplating using the 5th knob as a bass cut control, but I'm just going to go with this for a while first. Really digging it.
