Good potentiometers
artyomski 30.06.2025
Bought 2 of these to use as volume pots for my PRS. I did have to make the original potantiometer holes bigger (as they were 8 mm wide) to fit these new pots, but a drill press made short work of it, so no big deal for me. It does the job of acting like volume pots nicely, so with that, nothing to complain about.
