ok my tone control is making everything really noisy. whenever i turn it up its really noisy but when i turn it down it goes away. also somtimes whenever im turning the knob i hear a crackling noise. should i just replace the tone pot or clean it out?
 
oh also should i just get a noise supressor for recording all the high gain stuff? and which noise supressor should i get?

Contact cleaner should do the trick for crackly pots. A poor man's version is consumer isopropyl alcohol but be careful not to get it on the paint finish.

ISP Decimator is a quality noise suppressor, comes in a few different configs.
 
aight cool man ill try that.

yeah i found some isp decimators on craigslist for about 80-100 bucks. seemed pretty simple. only had one knob which i like for stuff like that. just waiting on a response from any of them.
