I've just finished putting together my first TLA-1 kit and have run into a problem with the volume control. The control seems to work OK at full volume, but there is no discernable difference in volume as the knob is turned towards zero. Only in the last tiny bit before fully off (maybe the last 1/16th of a turn) does the volume drop from full to zero.

I am also having an issue with pick-ups which may or may not be related. When I pick a string the pick-ups work OK until the string vibration starts to slow down, and then the pick-ups cut out completely. It's more noticable on the thin strings (G/B/e) and is definitely worse on the bridge pick-up, but seems to affect all the strings and pick-ups to some degree.

Any ideas? It's no doubt something I've messed up in the wiring process, I've checked my wiring against the videos again and can't spot where I've gone wrong.
