General

Is the volume knob of your (bass) guitar making a nasty cracking noise when you touch it? Your potentiometer may need replacing! The Alpha ALP250-A31 is a cheap replacement part. Its 250K logarithmic taper makes it a perfect volume control for electric guitars or bass guitars with low-output pickups such as single-coils for instance. The split shaft makes it suitable for most knobs (without screw).

Tips or comments about this product

Please note: this potentiometer features a coarse shaft with 18 teeth and is only suited for coarse knobs. These knobs can be found on guitars from Japan, China, Korea, and Indonesia. For American knobs, it's best to use potentiometers by brands like Fender and CTS.

Prima Pot voor de prijs. Geen waanzinnig hoge kwaliteit, maar dat is dan ook niet wat je zou verwachten voor deze prijs.

Plussen: Doet wat het moet doen, voelt solide aan, soldeert lekker weg, goedkoop.
Minnen: Weerstandsverloop is wel logaritmisch, maar ietwat lomp voor de toneknop voor bijv. een strat. Pots van CTS hebben een beter verloop daarin. Ook lopen ze nogal stroef. Nog een minpunt: bij één zakje miste ik een moertje , slordig.
