Frequently Asked Questions

Do you need 500k pots for humbuckers?

No, but they're the standard for a reason. Humbuckers naturally serve up a thicker, meatier tone than single coils (that's why we love 'em!), and 500k pots help balance that by preserving those crucial high-end frequencies that keep your sound articulate and lively. Think of it as letting your pickups show their full personality instead of holding them back.
