Did DiMarzio POTS came on mid-60 Fender Jag's

gsouth

I am looking at a 65 Fender Jag with the Tone POT showing DiMarzio as the manufactor. I don't believe DiMarzio came on mid-60 Fenders. Can anyone confirm ?

Thx in advance

Rick

i can more or less confirm that those are unoriginal. the pots should have no brand markings on them at all. no writing around the sides. and have a circular creater on the base, with lettering written round the edge in a circle. these are '65 mustang pots, but jaguar got the same ones, only different values:

the pre '64 pots had the markings on the sides, like these:

Chances are if they are DiMarzio pots they are probably the wrong value too. I only have seen DiMarzio pots in 500K and 250K values, and nobody has really put Jag/Jazz type parts onto the shelves until recent years (1995+).

They're not "wrong", then, just "different".
