Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between the A25K and B25K guitar potentiometers in this set?

A: The A25K is an audio taper potentiometer, which means its resistance changes logarithmically — this makes it ideal for volume control, as it mimics how our ears perceive sound. The B25K is a linear taper potentiometer, where resistance changes evenly across the sweep, making it well-suited for tone control applications.

Q: Will these potentiometers fit my electric guitar?

A: These 24mm base diameter, 18mm shaft length potentiometers are designed to fit most standard electric guitars and basses that use 18mm potentiometer mounting holes. The coarse knurled split shaft is compatible with the majority of standard guitar control knobs. Always verify your guitar's existing pot dimensions before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.

Q: Do I need any special tools to install these guitar pots?

A: Basic guitar wiring tools are recommended — a soldering iron, solder, and a screwdriver or nut driver to secure the pot to the control plate or pickguard. If you are new to guitar electronics, consulting a basic guitar wiring diagram for your instrument's configuration is a great starting point.
