Great replacement
Cesar593 13.10.2017
I have been using these pots to replace old and noisy ones, specially in cheaper guitars. They are noise free, reliable and very well built, with good soldering lugs.

This. is. AWESOME. Trust me on this, if you like CTS pots but are sick of trying to find knobs that fit a 6.3 shaft - buy this pot. You can not hear/feel a difference in these and the CTS! It takes solder great, fits the holes for CTS pots, but fits import knobs!. Plus, it takes a good amount of torque to get it turning which I love. You really cant go wrong for the price - why pay double for CTS?!?

This thing is HUGE
Anonymous 24.04.2015
Bought this to replace the volume-pot on my Ibanez BTB676 since the original pot got worn out and had began producing scraping noises.

What i probably didn't realize until I had the new pot in my hand was the significant difference in size to the original one, this pot is HUGE!
Not only did I have to drill a larger hole (11mm) but the casing is a lot bigger so I had to rearrange the pots positions to fit properly inside the cutout in the body.

However once the tricky bits were done I'm very pleased with the product. Very smooth and controlled volume, and I actually do feel a slight improvement in sound quality as well. I never thought a potentiometer would make any difference but it feels like I got a little more clarity in high-mids for some reason.

Perfect choice for my Epiphone
Arpie 19.11.2015
I had contact problem with my pots in my Epiphone Les Paul.
As I had a good experience earlier with Goldo pots using them for my Stratocaster so I was brave enough to order them again.

Very good quality pots, not too easy too rotate but not too stiff either...just perfect, exactly what I like.
Soldering them is literally a dreamjob, no problem whatsoever.
The contact problem is now gone, sounds perfect!
(it's Japanese so it's not a surprise to me at all why it's so great)

I can only recommend them to anyone, especially if you compare its quality to their price.

I will buy them next time definitely.

Very good pots for your wirings
wgen 10.11.2016
I've been using these potentiometers together with their 250k ohm counterparts and I haven't had a problem. I bought them because they were cheap enough, but still, I'm not complaining because of that! These will fit well into Gibson or other humbucker guitars' wirings, and you can solder on them just as well as with other brands of potentiometers

Great sweep and feel
David8581 01.04.2017
Really happy with the sweep and feel of these pots. There is a nice even reduction in volume with them, without any sudden jumps at the top or bottom of the range. Along with the capacitors I had installed, these pots keep the tone stable without any treble loss throughout the sweep of the volume knobs. Will be buying again should I need to upgrade any of my guitars.

If you want quality, buy this one.

Göldo US500 poti is a little bit harder on turning a knob but not too hard. Virtually noiseless, big, and you can feel quality. They are also really easy to solder..

This is an exact replica of the CTS pots at a fraction of the cost! Ok, so its a split shaft, only comes in 500K, and isnt a fully brass shaft - but the feel of it, performance of it, and "torque" or it are identical. I like pots that take some effort the move them, and this one is great. The tolerances are just as good as CTS too. Remember though - it only fits holes drilled for american pots!
