Pots! What brands are good?

[jmcd]

Hi Guys

Jmcd: In other words, you are using 24mm pots. 16mm pots have about a 7mm bushing.

An "audible whoosh" is just from the noise in the circuit... you hope...

For either size, but likely more usual on the smaller pots, the bushing is cast aluminium along with the bushing and front face of the pot.i always use the anti-rotation tab, which requires drilling a small hole beside the hole for the bushing. The mechanical drawing for the pot you wish to use will give correct dimensions, or just measure the pots once you have them in hand.

Have fun

Yes, 24mm pots. But with the smaller-diameter bushing.

The audible swoosh is mechanical and doesn't come through the speaker. It's due to the stiffness of the wiper, I guess. I like it on my amps but not on my guitars
