AxLabs250K Audio Taper Split 3/8" Shaft Medium 3/4" Length Potentiometer
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
AxLabs' 250K audio-taper split-shaft pot is made for electric guitars using single-coil pickups. The 3/8-inch split shaft has a medium 3/4-inch length, giving technicians and builders specific dimensions to match during a control replacement. A machined brass sleeve, retainer-ring reinforcement, and three-grease lubrication support a smooth rotation feel with reduced friction. Its nickel-plated steel housing is designed for easier soldering when fitting the pot into a guitar's wiring work.
Strong match
Who this is for

Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
