Designed with guitar enthusiasts in mind, this potentiometer is perfect for Les Pauls, SGs, and other humbucker setups. Whether you're a hobbyist or a professional luthier, this pot delivers exceptional performance.

Key Features

500K Ohms Resistance: Brings out the brightness of your humbuckers.

±10% Tolerance: Ensures consistent tone across your setup.

Audio Taper: Provides smooth volume and tone transitions that match how we perceive sound.

Standard Friction Rotation: Rest assured your pots will stay in place during your performance.

Specifications

This CTS split shaft pot is built to fit standard US set-screw knobs with a fine-knurled .236" diameter shaft and a short brass bushing (3/8" high). It requires a compatible 3/8" (9.5mm) mounting hole, making it a great fit for most Gibson-style guitars like Les Pauls, SGs, Explorers and more. Each pot comes with all the hardware you need: two nuts, a dress washer, and a lock washer for secure installation.

Important Note

If your guitar has metric mounting holes (common in import models like Epiphone or Ibanez), you’ll need to widen the holes to fit this pot.
