I'm trying to recreate this setup on my Dallas Schecter strat with SD SSL-4's, a 5-way super switch and a push-pull pot. Any idea on the spec of the vol/tone pots? e.g. 250K or 500K? Linear or log?

Is there an email address I can send pix to for verification? Thanks, Bob I bought this no name Strat at a garage sale and pulled the pickguard to find what I believe to be F500T’s.

I´ve to replace a pot from my schecter, and I don´t know why it doesn´t sound anymore, sure I made something wrong in resoldering wires, and I was unable to find an scheme for the schecter. I´ll try with this one, thanks again. Your blog is very very useful. Regards from Spain. Thank you very much Ingo!
