Un-dark is my procedure for adding more treble into both my volume and tone controls. The best part? It's super-duper easy, extremely cheap and totally reversible. In fact, this is easily the most affordable and simple way to DRASTICALLY change your tone on any guitar.
Here's what you need:
For each VOLUME control: Cinnamon Drop High-Pass Treble Bleed Circuit

For each TONE control: Cinnamon Drop .01uF Polypropylene Film Capacitors

The Treble Bleed is a high-pass, so it rolls back way less treble, giving your tone a ton more clarity. Also notice that you retain much more of your volume. All it takes is a .001uF Cinnamon Drop cap wired in parallel with a Blueberry 150k resistor. You just wire this sucker into the in and out lugs on your volume pot. You have successfully un-darked your volume control.
The .01uF Cinnamon Drop cap gets wired in on each tone control. This capacitor is a value that you don't hear about much, but they're a real secret weapon. The idea here is kinda the same as the treble bleed. You get way more treble response across the sweep of your tone pot. You have successfully un-darked your tone control.
