Guitar Potentiometers part 2, Comparing Linear/Audio Taper and Selecting Pots

www.planetz.com . In this video, I demonstrate the sound differences between Linear and Audio taper pots, and compare audio tapers in Alpha, Bourns and CTS pots. I then review the other factors you need to consider when buying pots: tolerances, dimensions, split shaft versus solid shaft, etc. In part 3, I'll cover how to enlarge the holes in a semi-hollow body to fit the new 3/8" shaft pots. Audio examples recorded through my Vox VT30 amp and a high quality Rode NT1 mic.
