Members Jim-Bass Posted July 28, 2007 Members Share Posted July 28, 2007 is there a difference in the controls of the MIA and MIM Fender? I think my MIM has 500k pots ...if you turn the volume knob right down (no volume) you only have to turn it up by a quarter turn (at most) for it to be at almost full volume ....if you think of it as a Clock Face, 1 minute past 12 has no volume, between 2 minutes past 12 and 2 o'clock is a huge increase and from there you can hardly notice any increase. Almost defeats the purpose. Does a 250k pot change this? It's not critical, just ...could, or should be improved. At least the Batrolini dual coils I put on are silent ....you can turn one p/up down a bit, half or completely and there is no noise..no annoying hum or buzz you get from the Fenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Kindness Posted July 28, 2007 Moderators Share Posted July 28, 2007 There is no difference in stock MIA and MIM pot values. Sounds like you have a linear pot instead of an audio taper. Very odd. Any chance it was modded before you got it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
