I just built one but I cant get the tone control to function.
Turning the pot doesnt affect the sound at all.

Any ideas?

All my TS's had tone knob that barely works to any discernable amount.
 I just work around that area and set the voicing to my liking.
 Built and boxed a Blues Breaker the other day, tone knob wired right up and worked great...
 The TS tone pot is some kind of wierd taper.

Does Blues Breaker resemble TS in terms of sound?
