Musiclily Pro 500K Brass Shaft Metric Coarse 18-Spline Split Shaft Pots Audio/Linear Taper Potentiometers for Electric Guitar Bass (Set of 4)

I looked everywhere to find metric short split shaft tone and volume control potentiometers for my Korean made Les Paul guitar. These were perfect and about 1/3 the price of other brands.

I purchased these to check to see if they were at least as good as what I have been buying from more well known parts suppliers. I can honestly say these are quite good and I will likely buy more in the future.

I got 500K pots and they measure around 440-480K range. 60-70K is an audible difference for humbucker guitars, the guitar sounds darker than with the before "cheap" & "flimsy" pot measuring 512K. I am looking for better metric pots...still haven't found any yet.

Excellent pots at a great price. Worked great in my LP project.

These have a nice medium-loose turn resistance, similar to a full sized CTS potentiometer, not quite as tight as Alphas, or sticky-tight like other cheapos I've seen, like Cherkfan (CF). They're smooth, quiet and look a lot like Fender/CTS clones. Like someone else mentioned, that "brass" chassis part, is not really brass. It's gold chrome'd pot metal (not a problem), but the actual shaft is brass. I'd put these in the medium-good quality range just by feeling them. Decent CTS clone, better than unbranded stuff. Very similar to a good Alpha pot, but looks and feels more like a Fender/CTS. My multimeter puts them at 236-254.Edit: June 2024, bought them again for another guitar. Same good quality. The old ones are still working great as well.
