Members Jkater Posted June 30, 2006 Members Share Posted June 30, 2006 If you change 500K pots for 300K's, what does it do to the sound. I hear Gibson LP's have 300K volume pots. Is there a reason for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DonK Posted June 30, 2006 Members Share Posted June 30, 2006 Potis - I thought you were talking about some new cannabis derivative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vexed73 Posted June 30, 2006 Members Share Posted June 30, 2006 I belive with the higher the pot the more Highs will come through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members k4df4l Posted June 30, 2006 Members Share Posted June 30, 2006 lower value = darker tone The value of the pots has to do with the load the pickup sees, altering the pot value alters that load and the pickups sound accordingly. IIRC, Gibson used to use 300K and now use 500K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
