the bridge volume pot on my explorer is crap, it crackles like hell when you try to turn it down, so i figure why not rewire everything while im at it. so anyway, what do you guys reccomend for the pot value? i think this one is 300k, but thats a pure guess. id probably just get another 300 as long as nobody has a strong argument for a 250k or 500k, but if you do, go ahead and say...

well I thought I had a new LP for $850...
So i'm out doing some shopping this morning and I happen to be by GuitarCenter when they opened up today, so I walk in. The first thing that catches my eye is a new les paul standard limited for $850. I pick it up and fiddle with it for a few minutes, being the impulse buyer that I am I tell the quot;dudequot; behind the counter i'll take it. He says quot;sorry dude but I can't sell it to youquot;.. I'm like quot;why not? it's on the floor with a price tag on it, I want to buy it.quot;.... he tells me quot;well dude you can't buy it until the 4th of july sale on next Monday, we open at 8am.quot; So I say ****it and leave pissed... excitement to anger in about 45 seconds. Here is the LP that im talking about

what kind of pickup's would be good for my situation
i just wanted to know what everyone thought, i am having my gamp;l legacy cutomized, i play rock, funk and jazz, what would be a good set of pickups? i was thinking the sh-1 59 might be a good set, i have heard it is a little bassy and that is what i want on the bridge position for a thick distortion sound, but is it over kill on the low end in the neck position, should i put a alnico 2 in the neck position instead, and do these sh-1's rock heavy if it is needed, and then cleanup when needed, i know the jb rocks but i feel it does not have enough low end fullness, that is why i am thinking of sh-1's, i need all around flexable pickup's that can do a little of everything, is this a good selection? has anyone used these on a Gamp;L before, does a neck position sh-1 sound less bassy on a legacy (strat) than on a les paul?

Putting on pickup cover?
Is it possible to take a JB or Jazz pickup w/out a cover and put one on? I've seen some good pickups for a fair price on ebay, but none w/gold covers which I want. So would it be possible, or difficult to do this? Thanks!

A couple small speaker questions
#1. Do the large size Bogner 2x12's come stock with two Vintage 30's, or the V30/CL80 combo? If they come with both, which is more common, and what do you guys think of the tone of the cab, with one or the other?
