Alpha 250K Pots Metric Solid Short Shaft 6.5mm Audio Taper Potentiometers for Electric Guitar Bass (Set of 4)

Well, all the pots were technically within tolerance, so I really can't complain--especially considering the value for the money. In fact, two of them exceeded 500K (525k and 526k) at full volume, so that's pretty awesome.Of the other two, one maxed out at 468k (totally acceptable) and the last one maxed out at 439k.Again, all are considered within tolerance, but I personally can't use the 439k pot. That's just enough to create an audible effect (albeit very minimal) on the tone, so I'll save that one for practice or demo videos.

Nice pots for the price, no scratch, fit my strat builds well, smooth, no noise, and solder well.

Heads up! These are the good Alpha pots. "Friction pots" these may be grease filled I'm not sure. Love the feel of them.

These are great quality and just as good as CTS pots for much less in price! I actually bought these to replace a new CTS pot I just installed about a month ago and already was super scratchy and cutting in and out. Only con is the lugs aren’t as long to be able to solder one to the back to ground it but not a huge deal at all. Just solder a small piece of wire from the lug to side of the body. They also take solder really well. They’re stiff but not too stiff and a little electronic cleaner does the trick. Highly recommend these and will be using for now on.

Despite being Alpha, these are full sized, well made and a good substitute for CTS pots. I know many people think that Alpha pots are inferior, but there arefull size pots that work great, feel good and cost third of the price.Don't be a brand snob give these a try.
