In this video, I demonstrate the sound differences between Linear and Audio taper pots, and compare audio tapers in Alpha, Bourns and CTS pots.
I then review the other factors you need to consider when buying pots: tolerances, dimensions, split shaft versus solid shaft, etc.
In part 3, I'll cover how to enlarge the holes in a semi-hollow body to fit the new 3/8" shaft pots.
Audio examples recorded through my Vox VT30 amp and a high quality Rode NT1 mic.

The multimeter I use in this video is the Mastech MS8229 - https://amzn.to/3n0oDB6. (I am not sponsored - this is just my recommendation based on personal experience. I may earn a small commission if you purchase via the link).
