RobSm Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hi. I used 1 meg pots as vol controls on my latest DIY. The pots are StewMac audio taper. The useable range is very narrow - from 12o'clock down to 8 o'clock. The StewMac tech guy says 1 meg pots are like that. I don't see why that should be so. The sound is A OK. The pot thing is just a bit of an irritation. The wiring is like a jazz bass, 2 vol 1 tone (500k) no switch. Does anyone know whether the narrow range of use in\s typicl as suggested? and if not, what might cause this? RbSm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Not typical in my experience. Sounds like the wrong taper. Are you sure they're audio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
