-Yeah' date=' they're "supposed" to be 500k. But when I measured mine, they ranged from 394k to 505k.

Yeah, SHOULD be:

VOLUME - B500K

TONE - A500K

Don't know what the +/- factory specs are regarding tolerances...

-The replacements I got from Black Rose Customs probably 5 years ago were all 500k CTS audio pots. They all measured between 510k and 515k. Now that's a pretty matched set of pots. I get a nice, smooth roll off from the tones and volumes. None of this full on or full off crap. And I got Orange Drop caps to go with them. .015 for the neck and .022 for the bridge. Works great for me.

 

L8R,

Matt

I've been popping cts 300k's in my axes. been pretty decent to me so far. I noticed more soul and a lot less mud and harshness.
