Vol pot query


Pinch

Recommended Posts

One of the volume knobs on my Epi acts like this:you have to turn it a mm or so before it "takes", as if the knob isn't snug on the metal pin (?) it moves. What would cause that? It's not really a problem as long as it doesn't get worse. Been like that since I got it. More curious than anything else.

 

Anyone familiar with something like that? Thanks.

Pots with push/pull switches usually have some idling due to the small play required between the shaped push rod and the inversely shaped pot tap axle's bushing. A "pot-only" control should have a snug fit of shaft and tap axle.

 

Hope this helps.
