Lately i got a 1983 T-40 and i have some trouble with it's wiring. I now found this forum and hope anyone can help me. I had a lot of basses in the last 15 to 20 years (low end and pretty much so called "high end" ones) and i must say this t-40 is a "keeper" to me. I like it VERY much. But, i' afraid, mine has some "inconsistencies" to work on. The wiring on mine is not genuine (from the web i got the original peavey wiring ...

Problems: * Phase switch was defective. I bypassed and removed this without issue. * Neck pickup will not work. Via process of elimination I narrowed it down to the TONE pot. I'm not sure if it's the pot itself or the connection between it and the volume pot. The .022 OHM resistor fell apart when trying to remove it which is likely the culprit. Which leads me to my questions. * Can I wire tone to the vol directly without the resistor? * If not, what ...

My T-40 came with strap locks already installed--the kind with a hollow peg and locking post. Did Peavey ship T-40s with strap locks, and, if so, will their current strap lock sets be compatible?
