TIP 1: LOG pots should always be used for Volume controls. For Tone controls either LOG or LINEAR pots can be used to your preference. If undecided, we recommend using LOG pots.
TIP 2: 500K Ohm pots have a slightly "brighter" sound than 250K Ohm pots as they place less load on the pickup. Therefore, 500K pots are more commonly used with humbuckers. 250K pots are often used with single coils as they can temper some of the shrill brightness. However, both values are interchangeable and can used according to taste.

PTSW03: SWITCHED POTENTIOMETER (PUSH-PUSH)
HARD TO FIND! PUSH-PUSH Switched pots. These pots are superb in operation and much slicker to operate (especially when playing live!). One push brings the switch to the "out" position, a second push toggles to the "In" position.

CRTC01: CAP'/RES' NETWORK FOR TREBLE COMPENSATION
If you're one of the many guitarists frustrated by the loss of treble when your volume control is reduced, the combination of a resistor and capacitor wired in parallel (known as "treble compensation" or "treble bleed" circuit) can really brighten things up. (see diagram)
