You should be able to get that pot (even with '66/'67 pot codes if you care that much) for well under $50.

As for devaluing - I would not pay any less for a used bass with one pot changed for a vintage equvalent. As long as the soldering was tidy, and it basically looked the same, I see no problem.

Gotta say it makes me groan a bit thinking about a pot fix devaluing things like this. It's not like we're talking adding a triplebucker and Floyd Rose.

Amazing how trainspotting can take the joy out of pretty much any hobby.

Changing the pot, even with a vintage replacement, will likely reduce the value of the guitar. In my opinion (and likely yours) the store needs to either allow you to return the instrument or reduce the selling price to something you are comfortable accepting. Unfortunately, there is no rule that I know of that would allow you to estimate the reduction in value a replaced pot might cause.

This is definitely a difficult situation. If you like the guitar, try to get them to compensate you for this defect. If you don't like the guitar, make them take it back. A chain store should stand behind their merchandise and they should have never let a guitar with a defective pot be sold in the first place. They are not eBay, a guitar tech should have checked the guitar before selling it.

She paid about $2500 for it, and upon playing it for the first time I realized that one of the tone pot's wasn't working right. I took it back and they tried to clean it, but it appears to be shot. Does anyone have any idea if I was to swap out the tone pot what this would do to the value of the guitar as it will no longer be all original? Also, does anyone have any suggestions on where to pick up a pot for this guitar? thanks!
