The Volume Pot on the Secret Service I recently sold only turns the volume down so much. It will not go silent. What can I do to get the volume as low as possible or go out completely?
 
Is that normal operation to not be able to turn it fully down?

Also, could I wire in a resistor to lower the volume? It goes plenty loud enough, I just need the low end to go lower... the high end can go lower as well...
 
I would guess that the volume pot in there now is not the correct one.

You could wire a resistor in series but it will cap out your sound at a lower level. You should verify that the installed pot is the correct one.
