Where is a good place to get pots, and all that?

I'd like to rewire my SG, and I'm looking for quality stuff at a reasonable price.

I just need 4 500k pots, a switch, an output jack and the proper caps (do I need fancy caps?).

Mostly looking for a place that doesn't gouge you on shipping and has all of the parts I need in stock. cop.gif


Allparts has a kit for $40. I itemized all of the parts in my cart, and it was well over $40.
probably cheap junk parts.

Many states have dispensaries that you can get a variety of quality stuff from if you have a doctor's note. I think Washington or Oregon just recently passed a "no Doctor's note needed" law too.

You may need to visit your local "head shop" for the "and all that" part of your needs.

I get all my pots from there, too.

As for caps, I just buy them in huge bags. You can get so many poly caps for cheap. That involves you being OK with poly caps, but I largely am. I just test them before they go in.

Don't worry about fancy caps. Concentrate on "fancy" pots. Crap pots will cause far more problems than "average" caps. Ditto for switches and jacks -- go for quality switches, jacks and pots over the capacitor mojo vapour bull{censored} that's being promoted out there.
