The Electronics

All four pots bear the same codes TX1158 500K A 1376852. 500k audio taper CTS pots manufactured the 52nd week of 1968. Sprague "black beauty" tone capacitors, often referred to as "bumble bee caps". Note the splice to the output jack wiring, evidently when the jackplate broke, the wire broke loose and this quick, but dirty, repair was employed. I am not sure the jack is original. I have replaced the flat gold jackplate with a black contoured one, and replaced the non-original screws with gold ones. All pulled parts are in the case, one screw is gold plated and may be original. Switch original, and wiring is untouched.

White "speed knobs" were fitted to the guitar when I received it, and had required that the posts be squeezed together. No cracks, or breaks, but I have elected to leave them "as-is".
