Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What is a guitar potentiometer? A: A guitar potentiometer is an electrical component used to control the volume and tone of electric guitars by adjusting the resistance in the circuit.
- Q: What are the specifications of the B500K potentiometer? A: The B500K potentiometer features a base diameter of approximately 16.5mm, a shaft diameter of about 6mm, a shaft length of around 18mm, and a full length of approximately 27.5mm.
- Q: Can these potentiometers be used for both volume and tone controls? A: Yes, these high-quality audio potentiometers are suitable for both volume and tone controls in electric guitars.
- Q: What is the shaft type of the B500K potentiometer? A: The B500K potentiometer has a long knurled and split shaft design, which fits most control knobs.
- Q: How many potentiometers are included in the package? A: The package includes a total of 10 B500K guitar potentiometers.
- Q: Are these potentiometers brand new? A: Yes, the B500K potentiometers are 100% brand new and have never been used.
- Q: What is the thread diameter of the shaft? A: The shaft thread diameter of the B500K potentiometer is approximately 7mm.
- Q: Are these potentiometers suitable for other instruments besides electric guitars? A: While these potentiometers are specifically designed for electric guitars, they may also be compatible with other stringed instruments that require similar volume or tone control.
- Q: What type of knobs are compatible with the B500K potentiometer? A: The coarse knurled shaft of the B500K potentiometer is designed to fit most standard control knobs.
- Q: How do I install a new potentiometer in my guitar? A: To install a new potentiometer, desolder the old one from the circuit board, connect the new potentiometer to the same points, and ensure all connections are secure before reassembling your guitar.
