Description
A genuine CTS 1 Meg (1,000K) linear taper potentiometer built with an extended 3/4" threaded bushing — nearly double the length of a standard CTS pot's 3/8" thread. That extra length is essential on carved-top guitars like a Les Paul, where the top's thickness means a standard-length pot won't reach through to seat properly against the surface. The high 1 Meg value combined with a linear taper is a less common but deliberate combination, often used in specialty wiring where an even, predictable sweep is wanted at this unusually high resistance range.
Benefits:
- Industry-standard CTS quality trusted by major guitar manufacturers
- Extended 3/4" threaded bushing reaches through thick carved tops where standard pots fall short
- High 1 Meg value with even, predictable linear response for specialty wiring applications
Features:
- 1 Meg ohm resistance, linear taper
- 3/4" long threaded bushing
- Split, knurled 6mm shaft with nut
- Includes lock washer and dress washer
