Mine is an 84 and the pots are good but I am on my 3rd pickup selector switch, fortunatley everytime it has snapped off it has been in an 'on' postition. smokinbear Intermediate Member Username: smokinbear Post Number: 126 Registered: 11-2008 Posted on Wednesday, November 30, 2011 - 7:14 am:    Good one!!! It's An 89 5-string. I mostly play the bridge pu so im not messing with the selector switch much , but the knob falls off every now and then and i never can find the .050" allen key when i need it. It(the bass) used to reside in Jersey w/ Danno, and I seem to recall him saying it got refurbished @ the mothership. So Who knows how old the pots are.....
