CTS 500k Push Pull Potentiometer for Guitar - Push Pull Pot, Short Split Shaft, Audio Taper, DPDT, Coil Split, 10% Tolerance (2x)

These are very smooth and quiet. The only ones I have in my 6 guitars. I use them for coil splitting. Haven't had a single issue with them.

Decent enough once you get used to the style. Just make sure you do not drip solder anywhere or you’ll need a new one. They do take up a lot of space in the cavity that is the only issue.

CTS 500k push/pull pots arrived quickly and just as described! These worked great for the “PRS partial split” wiring job I needed them for! Can’t ever go wrong with CTS products! Very happy customer!

These potentiometers are so high quality, and you can tell they are more well designed and solid than other common options out there. The pros of these pots are incredible build quality, sturdiness, and my favorite the resistance you feel when turning the pot clockwise/counterclockwise. On one of my custom guitars the brand used push pull pots for both knobs for coil splits, and they turn so loosely they feel cheap and turn on accident even. The CTS Pots are refreshingly catchy while turning. I absolutely that about them, and that's my favorite feature. Aside from this, I love the straightforward soldering board design. The pots are a little shorter in length than the competition and an interesting modern method of connection. Even the bottom of the switch itself, thick black plastic with the CTS logo-- I actually appreciate the "look" of these pots. There's something nice about looking down and seeing a clean black logo instead of your ground solder pools! Overall, these pots are 10/10 and probably (pretty sure) the best push-pulls you can get right now, probably followed by bourns (which are much looser to turn if you like that, and longer in length, with the older style small soldering lugs. I just really appreciate these CTS pots and the quality I received in this product, I felt compelled to post a review with photos.

It can be confusing to choose the right potentiometer. There are two types. Audio taper and linear. So keep that in mind when ordering. The items I received were great. The quality is remarkable and as always, I received everything quickly

Great push-pull pots from CTS. Short shaft for SG type guitars. I can tell you it definitely doesn't fit Les Pauls with the maple tops. Good quality and accurate. The torque is little high for my taste. They are not defective, I just prefer low-torque pots. The push pull functions without issue or noise. The shorter overall height of these allow me to install them in an SG and Flying V without problems, albeit they are snug in those types of guitars. They do fit in an Epiphone and Gibson Flying V and in Gibson SG standards. They do not fit in Gibson SG tributes (like the 50's or 60's tributes) nor do they fit in Gibson SGJ guitars. The back covers bow out a little on those instruments. If that bothers you (it bothered me) then you cannot use these pots. I ended up not using push pull pots at all on my Gibson SGJ and 50's tribute because I could not find any suitable short push pull pot. Overall these function perfectly. They are accurate and have a good tolerance. No noise or issues using them. The side plate is a good idea to reduce the overall height. It took a little bit of experience to solder wires to the sides without messing up the pot. But complex wiring can be done using these (such as series/parallel or phase reverse). I used them mostly for coil tap. I gave 4-stars because of the following reasons (none of which are technical problems or defects): 1) I prefer low-torque and they don't make these pots in low-torque. 2) I prefer vintage taper as opposed to log taper (30% vs 10% at half way). Its my preference to use vintage taper. Otherwise excellent quality CTS pots that I expect will last for decades.

I love these pots because the solder connections for the switch are so easy to use. I've used Bourns in the past and struggled to get the wires to sit right on their switch contacts. These are larger than a lot of the other brands, but if you have the room in your wiring cavity, they are by far the easiest to solder.

High quality pots with push pull switching. I used this in a new guitar build and use the switches for coil splitting on Humbucker pickups. They have smooth action and the switches are solid and positive.

Buena calidad, como de cualquier guitarra buena con split coil

Excelente calidad, materiales, diseño, construcción, solidez. Solo 2 observaciones: A) la caja de plástico donde va el mecanismo del switch push/pull es muy voluminosa y puede ser un problema en cavidades pequeñas (Telecaster por ejemplo). Usé uno como control de Tono para el Bridge en una Strat y a duras penas entró y tuve que adpatar el cableado a esa configuracion. B) Extraño el sonido de 'click' del Push/Pull estándar,

Calidad de materiales es excelente, algo complicado hacer conexiones a tierra por el diseño del potenciómetro, el giro es suave pero no es rápido y el click del interruptor cambia al 25-30% del recorrido del poste al momento de presionarlo pero sin ruidos, producto muy recomendable.

Recomendable
