AxLabs 500K Audio Taper Potentiometer

Unlike any other potentiometers on the market, AxLabs pots were specifically designed for electric guitars, utilizing years of painstaking attention to detail in the industry. 

AxLabs potentiometers feature machined brass shaft sleeves and are lubricated with 3 different types of grease used in specific areas of the moving parts for ultra-smooth rotation. Shafts are then reinforced with a retainer ring positio­ned for strength and to reduce friction.  Lastly, a nickel-plated steel housing was used for the ease of gripping solder as well as the classic, high-end look of vintage pots.

Note: To use as a volume pot, our audio taper is perfectly suited for high gain uses (such as industrial metal). When playing clean through hard rock, blues, and fusion-style overdrive levels, you may want to try our Linear Taper Pots.
