Which pots for passive hums ??

[Sir_Shreds_A_Lot]

So I am considering replacing the EMG's in my
DK-1 with Duncans or Dimarzios. What value pots do I need to get ? 250K ? 500K ?

Also, dont the EMGS come with a different input jack ? Does this need to be changed when swapping to passives ?

You'll need 500k pots for hums. The jack that comes with EMG's is only different in that it has an extra ground terminal so you can leave it in there. Don't forget to to ground everything out to the trem claw!

EMGHZ's are passive so yes, you'll need 500k pots. By the way, I saw your Rhoads project. Nice work!
