Nostalgitone 70s Tweed Trimpot (answered)

[Anonymous]

Hi Barry,

Good day.

I just like to ask if there are specific resistance measurement/reference value of those trim pots on the Tweed board? Are they supposed to have the same value set or are they supposed to compensate or compliment, something to that. Or at least could you share your setting?

I tried adjusting them but it seemed i am not quite satisfied with what I am hearing. Though I know that tone is subjective but I believed there is a sort of reference values of those two trim pot to get the most of useable sound of the circuit.

Thank you for your reply in advance and regards!

They are designed to add gain to suit different rigs, pickup types, and outputs. If you use single-coil, low-output pickups, you can increase the gain. The “stock setting” is minimal for both, but you can adjust each one slowly and incrementally with small turns as needed. Experiment to find your preferred level, or stick with the minimal stock setting.

I have updated the build document to be more specific.
