Anyone ever try to rewire their ROS for one jack with the .0047 cap switched in and the other with it switched out? The Mono jack is a Switchcraft 13 with an isolated switch on it. The Stereo jack is a 12B which could be used as is for a mono system. Hmm.

Now that's an interesting proposition. I'm going to noodle up a wiring diagram tonight for such a thing.

ding ding ding ding...post 100 for me.

I have yet to find a PP pot to fit the shallow control cavity of a Rick. I also don't want to dill another hole in the already crowded pickguard for an added switch. I have thought that replacing one of the tone pots with a rotary switch and making the other a master tone as a nice compromise. The problem is, I haven't found the capped sound to be very useful for me to make it worth it IMO.
