Overview

Smooth sweep, dependable performance.

The Allparts CTS 500K Split Shaft Audio Taper Pot 20-Pack provides a convenient bulk supply of one of the most trusted potentiometers in guitar electronics. Manufactured by CTS and rated at 500k ohms, these standard-orientation audio taper pots are suitable for either volume or tone controls in a wide range of electric guitar and bass wiring projects. Each pot features a split, knurled 1/4" shaft, aluminum bushing and shaft construction, and includes a flat washer, lock washer and mounting nut for installation. Designed to U.S. imperial specifications, they are ideal for American-made instruments and replacement projects requiring imperial-sized components, but are not compatible with guitars that use metric hardware. This 20-pack is a practical choice for repair shops, builders and technicians who need reliable CTS performance on hand for multiple installations and upgrades.
