Fit for Purpose

KMickP 19.11.2020

I replaced (or rather my tech did) the faulty volume pot in my Telecaster & it works fine, quality seems reasonable for the price!

Great replacement

Andrei G 01.04.2018

Bought it to replace the pots on an Ibanez RG560.
The potentiometer works as it should, there is no noise when turning it and it was easy to solder. One thing you should consider is that CTS pots are thicker than most stock pots and you will need new knob heads.

500K pot and capacitor

Ben7676 01.09.2014

500K pot suitable as a replacement (especially if it is a like for like replacement, in a fender) or as a component in a new build. It's advisable to use a reputable wiring diagram and to use a good quality solder to avoid any dry joints and to give you the best circuit (therefore sound) quality.

It is also important to note the capacitance of the capacitor to make sure that it follows your diagram.

I have found that these solid shaft pots work best with a grub screw type knob .

Overall the pot has a good build quality (to be expected from fender) and has a very smooth mechanical action. I'm not sure how these handle over time but I'm sure as it is a fender product it will last well.

Benchmark pots

There's nothing much to say about Fender pots. They work, they last long, they do exactly what's asked from them.

Solid pot

Pecko 22.10.2022

It is a classic pot used in every guitar or bass. I bought two, but I think one of the two pots is faulty but works when cranked all the way.

Tone volume pot

Stephen4207 18.08.2014

These pots are top quality and would be a great upgrade if you are overhauling your axe or building a new project. It's just not worth buying cheap pots and compromising the sound of your guitar.
