I can only find one trim pot that adjusts the overall output level. To get even levels from both pickups, I have to turn the P about 3/4 down. Is there a possibility to put in a trim pot just for that one pickup? cheers, Jogi mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 2838 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Wednesday, November 30, 2005 - 1:43 pm:    Your bass doesn't have Elan electronics then. It sounds like you have a Persuader with PJ combo. If you can reply with a photo of the electronics in the cavity, I can confirm and see what kind of room you have for modifications. jogi Junior Username: jogi Post Number: 32 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Thursday, December 01, 2005 - 1:56 am:    jogi Junior Username: jogi Post Number: 33 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Thursday, December 01, 2005 - 1:58 am:    Hi Mica, thanks for your fast reply. The serial number of the bass is 88H4936 - should be an Elan then, right? cheers, Jogi
