TAOT Custom CTS 250K Pot 1/4” Short Solid Shaft Audio Taper Vintage Dish Back

We’re extremely proud to present our own custom CTS TAOT 250k potentiometers! 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. Typically used in Telecasters, Jazz Basses, or any similar single-coil pickup guitar with set-screw knobs. These audio taper pots are suitable for both tone and volume controls.

Key Features

• 250K Ohms (Ω) Resistance - Ideal for single coil pickups to tame harsh high sounds.
• ±10% Tolerance - Ensures you get the intended tone you’re expecting from your pot.
• Audio Taper - Mimics how humans perceive sound for a smooth transition throughout the entire range of motion.
• Low friction rotation - Perfect for swells and quick adjustments.
• 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.

Physical Fit

• Solid 1/4" diameter shaft - Standard fit for US set-screw knobs.
• Solid brass 1/4" high (short shaft) bushing - Will fit most control plate setups (Teles, Jazz Bass, P-Bass, etc.).
• Each pot comes with hardware - 1 nut, a dress washer, and lock washer - Everything you need to get the perfect, secure fit!
• Compatible Mounting Hole - Requires 3/8" (9.5mm) diameter mounting hole.

Before Purchasing

Make sure your guitar has compatible mounting holes - If you are using import guitar, you will need to drill or ream mounting holes wider to fit these pots. Import guitars (e.g., Epiphone, Ibanez, PRS SE models, ESP) typically have metric holes around 1/4" in diameter, while these pots require 3/8" diameter holes.
