525 it's a Nashville. Altho in the case there are 4 of the silver top knobs which I will probably put on it instead of the black speedknobs. And when I lifted the mounting plate in the control cavity the date matched.Is it a Kalamazoo?

Good to know. I got mine in the mail but haven’t opened them. I’ll be sure to measure them. I know how to modify the taper on these so that they’re closer, so I might spend some time this weekend taking apart some potentiometers and balancing them out a bit. I am only replacing the volume pots themselves and leaving the tone controls. I can always put a 100k resistor in series with the tone control to make them less of a tone suck issue.One last post on it. I got the Bourns low friction pots today and installed them. First off these pots were all over the place. 431k, 515k, 531k, 551k. And I already had one that measured 581k. @glpg80 if that's an issue for you then there you go.
So I put them in as I thought best, the 581k went on the neck tone control and the 431k went on the bridge tone control, then the 531k and 551k went on the Neck/Bridge volumes respectively.
These pickups sound great. No need to change them. My litmus test is straight in to my Superlead cranked. PASS!
