The volume pot measures close to the spec'd 2 meg and tracks fine when rotating it while watching the needle of my Simpson 270. The 4.7 ohm and 68 ohm resistors connected to the one leg of the pot are ok.

The tone pot actually measures high compared to what it should be: 10 meg vs 6 meg. Granted, this is in circuit. The 33k resistor coming off of one leg is ok.
