Description

CTS potentiometers are high quality and renowned controls for guitar electronics. The 500K Ohms resistance gives a brighter tone and is traditionally used for humbucking pickups and its logarithmic audio taper is normally used for volume pots so the human ear can hear the volume change more smoothly. The potentiometer features a longer shaft so that it can be used with carved top guitars like Gibson Les Pauls, or just thicker guitars in general. Fits imperial sizes knobs, and to use knobs with a set screw with the pot, simply line up the set screw with the split in the shaft and tighten the set screw.
