Use better quality tone and volume control components ;). What do you mean by 'enhance sound' exactly? What have you already got, which you think needs enhancing?

Yes.
If you want detailed answers you must provide more information as to the kit you already have and in what way it is deficient. Schematics of the control circuits and instrument amps would be helpful.

Unless the existing pots are dirty and operating sporadically, replacing them will not enhance the sound. If they are, cleaning them might help.
