I'm working on my model 70. I had it working pretty good and I just couldn't leave well enough alone!!!! I tried aligning it with limited success. I noticed that there was a lot of looseness on the tone control and if i bump it it will cause the set to howl. I pulled the control out and I adjusted the contact arm so that it is snug and cleaned the contacts. I noticed that in the Riders schematic I have it shows the tone control as having a capacitor in it. It's item 48, part number 03140 on the schematic, but it doesn't give a value for the capacitor. Does anyone know the value of this cap? I have completely recapped this set and am wondering if I should replace this one too? Any info would be great! Thanks!
Kevin
