More top end?!
Robert487 15.08.2017
I have two guitars with the TBX Tone Control.Both have humbucking pickups and having that extra boost of top end is a godsend.These are a little tricky to install so if you don't solder then take it to someone who can.If you like the idea of a passive unit that gives you a nice top boost this well worth the money.

Good pot, bad caps
Samtt 12.03.2020
I really love the function of this thing and it works really well. The problem are the stock cap and resistor. The cap's legs are really really really short and the resistor doesn't do much. I personally wired it like a PTB circuit, which works a hundred times better

S
for that ringing strat tone
Selçuk 19.03.2015
As it is known a strat should sound like a ringing bell. This 1 megohm tone pot does that job.

I used it in my 1995 American strat. It was oem. Now I am building a strat and I wanted that ringing bell tone. That is why I purchased this TBX tone control. In the half way it is the tone pot we know. If you turn it to the end the sound of the single coil pick up gets brighter and there is that ringing bell tone.

I recommend this pot for those who needs a brighter and perfect strat tone on their 3 single coil strat.

Why isn't this a standard thing
Stuie 29.01.2022
Instantly transform any guitar or basses tonal palate, from dark to expanded this covers the lot, plus if you own Strat it'll beef up to woman tone or if you own a PJ add some chorus and whack this thing up to 10 for very very close duff tone

Great tone control.
Futone Guitars 28.01.2024
Great tone control for single coil guitars, its definitely worth the price.
It comes with a tone knob that I never use on my guitars, but if its for a fender you might.

Does what it says it does
Anonymous 09.06.2016
I bought the TBX to make my own version of a Fender Jazz Special bass from a Squier P-bass special.
The TBX was easy to install and works flawlessly since.
The only problem I faced was that the Squier pots were much smaller originaly so I had to do some modifications to the control cavity to make it fit, but that was easy and quick to do.

Pros:
-easy to install
-works flawlessly
-adds a lot of tonal options

Cons:
-The wiring diagram is a bit complicated to understand if you're not very familiar with electronics, but internet is full of useful info on how to wire it so no biggie.

Fender TBX Tone Control
Anonymous 16.01.2015
I've build and modified several guitars and used a Fender TBX Tone Control in all of them. They enhance your sound by adding more highs and lows.
In Short there are 2 tone pots stacked on top of each other, one will be used from 0 to 5 and will be the full sweep that would be on a normal tone pot.
The other one will be used from 5 to 10 and will add highs and lows to the sound.

The installation is very easy and anyone with some soldering experience, or who is a bit handy can do it.
The kit comes with all the parts, including a white tone knob, capacitor, resistor, potentiometer and an easy to use schematic.

I highly recommend this as an improvement to virtually any guitar. they work with humbuckers and single coils.

Simple mod, crispier tone.
Padicus 31.07.2019
Just what it says on the heading. Great and easy to install mod for any guitar. Great for crystal clear cleans and crispy crunchy tones.

I have only used it with single and P90 pickups but I've read it works fine with humbuckers too.

Good pot!
Christoph874 20.02.2014
I replaced a 90s TBX Pot from an Stratocaster which was broken.
Due to the instruction sheet which is included, the installation of the pot should be no problem for everyone being able to solder.

The knob is white and not creme what means it often does not fit on older guitars.

Super useful tool
MoDizzle 12.08.2022
TBX tone controls should be on every guitar. They're so useful to just freshen up sound and cut through the mix.
