We are extremely proud to offer our own custom branded and spec'd pots manufactured by CTS! These are identical in construction to CTS's high quality 450G series pots, but we spec'd them at 525K, and made some minor tweaks to the specifications to make them easier to use and install. These pots are specifically stamped to make it clear what resistance and taper they are without any external reference to complex manufacturer numbers or additional metering. At 10% tolerance, the value of these pots can range from ~475K to ~575K, and the majority of these pots will be much closer to the 525K spec. This means no exceptionally low or high resistance pots that can be found when using typical 20% tolerance 500K pots. We're very pleased with these pots and think you will be too! Typically used for Gibson guitars (SGs, Les Pauls, Explorers, Firebirds), but can be used for Fender guitars with humbucker setups (HSS or HH setups). These audio taper pots are suitable for both tone and volume controls.

  • Crystal Clear Stamping: Know exactly what your pot is at a glance! No need to meter or decipher complicated part numbers to know what you’re working with.
  • Enhanced Durability: The high-quality brass bushing and shaft ensures longevity and reliable operation.
  • Effortless Installation: All mounting hardware is included, making installation a breeze.
  • Imperial-fit: .235” (~5.95mm) diameter shaft with fine (24-spline) knurling will fit nearly all push-on knobs made in the USA. Metric-sized and import knobs may not work.
  • Trusted Industry Standard: Genuine CTS pots with 525k 10% audio-taper offers an exceeding quality to top American guitar companies, guaranteeing unmatched volume or tone control and iconic functionality.
