Big Improvement over cheap pots.
Christiansen 19.11.2020
I got a second hand Washburn with Seymour Duncan pups on it and I wasn't impressed how was the sound out of it. Not like I'm a professionist (more likely an sunday player) but the price was really low and guitar was in pristine condition so I bought it. The wiring was really bad and the pots were something no name and really tiny. So, I bought this pots, remade the wiring with SD wiring specs and damn, thru my computer with GR5 (dont have an amp yet) it's a big difference in how it sounds. It's a different quitar to be honest and high sounds are more clearer, changing the tone is actually making a difference (I got a Orange drop 22nf on it) and overall the quitar is turning out to be a 100% best deal. I don't know if the new wiring made this big change in sound, but I guess this new pots and cap made a huge difference. On the downside, I had to make the holes in the guitar and knobs a bit bigger for them to fit, but I knew that before ordering, couldn't find pots to fit exactly.

As advertised. Nothing overly remarkable, does what it is supposed to do, and well.

Great pot, only they send me the wrong one!

The ever so great CTS pot, what can you say this is probably the best pot to put in your guitar.
Only I recieved one where the volume already went down after 7 on the knob so make you sure you recieve the proper one.
Apart from that again the best pot you can buy!

A must for full Tone control
Mike_Jr 31.05.2025
I love this Tone pot, and I made the right choice when deciding to go for the no-tone at the 0 setting.
This option gives me the possibility to control the tone of my guitar in its entirety, from full bright tone to what my pickups have to offer on their own.
I recommend it for those that don't want any barriers in controlling their tone on their guitar or bass.
5/5 Stars!

Really good potentiometer. I've substituted all the pots on my cheap asian mades with these. Smooth action, reliable function.

Take note on how big the insides of your knobs are from your old potentiometers - all mine were smaller than what fits on these pots. I used pliers to squish together the top of the new pots to make the old knobs fit. If you do this, put something in the middle to avoidbreaking it.

Good pot
noxbenton 11.02.2020
Pot works as it should but I somehow didn't notice these pots with a tad thicker shaft (didn' fit my MIJ Ibanez) than I had before. So read carefully the specs when placing an order :-)

A big boy for a big tone

Easy to solder, especially on the case for connecting the ground. From the moment I had it in my hands I immediately felt that I could trust it...
