Now that I have figured it out though, I MAY just put a jumper inside instead. I am considering changing to an actual tone control and switch, using a 100K pot and a .1 mfd condenser. I know, the purists will hate me, but I like the idea, and have seen it done in the past. I think the only reason Philco didn't do it was cost. It will certainly fit just fine.
