OK, first off, I did search and read through old posts. I know there's a ton of old threads about this, but mine's a little different...
My volume pot had a bunch of crackle, and I used some electronics cleaning oil on it and it worked like a charm. Just yesterday, I bought a new push/pull pot to replace it with and now the crackle is back. Only thing is that it only crackles when it's in the "pulled-out" position (pushed position sounds clean and crackle-free.) I have tried using the above oil, and both turning and pushing/pulling the pot to work the oil in, but it is not helping. It's not horribly bad crackling, but it just bugs me that it's there--especially since it is a brand-new pot. Anyone got any other ideas to fix it? :think: I'm stumped.
Thanks!
