These are excellent quality but price has increased to $15.01 which is ridiculous. Looks like seller Art of tone is making a nice profit. ;P
I used this to add a preamp to a Fender STrat, replacing one of the stock tone controls for "pull up for bypass". The wiring is very simple and intuitive - separating connecting the wires from making the cross connections makes the initial setup and future modification very easy. Highly recomended
This potentiometer is working great in my Squier Stratocaster Classic Vibe as a volume control and splitting the neck humbucker. Very cool tone and control switch. You should have it
Pot body is shorter than Bourns and a little easier to wire, but it's also a lot larger in diameter and doesn't feel as nice in operation as a Bourns push/pull pot.
Easily add the the bridge pickup with the volume pot pulled and in postion 5 it adds the bridge and in postion 4 all 3 pickups .. This is an easy mod to add to your Strat giving you a 7 way guitar postions ..
