I bought this as I am frustrated at buying the big name brands only for them to be scratchy, stiff and poor longevity.
Admittedly I've only had this installed a week or so in my main guitar so I cannot verify it's longevity just yet, but it turns very smoothly indeed, it has no audible artifacts and has a nice gradual taper, unlike some other brands' potentiometers that go from 1=off to 2=full on then 2,4,5,6,7, etc are all the same value.
This is installed in a 2xHumbucker guitar 2vol 2 tone utilising 50's wiring so it's vital it has a good gradual taper.
very cool and keenly priced, thanks!
