Good potentiometers

LargePotato4455 12.09.2021

Good tone potentiometers, wanted to replace them because my guitar had mini-pots that worked not so good, even if I roll them to 0, the sound didn't change so much, probably they were broken

The main problem was that the holes in the guitar body where potentiometers are inserted were too small, I had to expand them a little with a file.
After this I soldered them, installed, and I noticed that they changed the sound, it became brighter, I can't say for sure, that's a merit of these pots, or that's because previous worked very badly

Now I can slightly roll them and will notice that the sound changed a bit, which means that you can change the tone as you want, this didn't happen with previous pots.

Don't have any complaints, I'm satisfied and can recommend them.

P.S. If someone wonders, for the volume I bought the ''Göldo Pot 500K Lin'', so I'm happy with them both

This is good pot...

Small Shed Luthier 17.01.2022

After using all kinds of pots from different brands, these are spot on.
They turn exactly the way I like, not too stiff and not too light.
Solidly constructed and they don't make crackling sounds when turning them.
I use them as good replacements and for scratch builds.

Meine Lieblingspotis

Fretshaper 16.06.2024

Hier ist eine Rezension für die Göldo Potis auf Deutsch:
Ich habe die Göldo Potis jetzt schon eine Weile im Einsatz und muss sagen, dass sie insgesamt großartig sind. Das Drehgefühl ist optimal und bietet genau den richtigen Widerstand für präzise Einstellungen. Die Verarbeitungsqualität und die reibungslose Bedienung machen sie zu einer hervorragenden Wahl für jeden Gitarristen, der seine Potentiometer aufrüsten möchte.

Allerdings ist mir aufgefallen, dass es ein kleines Problem mit der Qualitätskontrolle gibt. Von zwanzig Göldo Potis, die ich verwendet habe, einer defekt war. Obwohl dies kein großer Nachteil ist, sollte man sich dessen bei größeren Bestellungen bewusst sein.

Trotzdem kann ich die Göldo Potis aufgrund ihrer hervorragenden Leistung und Zuverlässigkeit in den meisten Fällen sehr empfehlen. Man sollte nur darauf achten, dass gelegentlich ein fehlerhaftes Exemplar dabei sein kann.

Can't beat it

Edgar Blackdagger 12.02.2018

I've been using this pot series for years and since the first set I bought, these are the only ones I've been buying and using.

They feel better than Fender pots, they are a lot cheaper and they are Japanese made, well, you can;t beat that.
