J Taper (which is a code CTS uses for a specific audio taper (or logarithmic pot) how the volume or tone changes as you turn the knob. Taper Defined: Taper refers to the rate at which the resistance changes from 0 to 10.
The Feel: The J Taper is a classic, often referred to as a "vintage" or "30% Audio Taper." It has a gradual and predictable sweep, which many guitarists prefer for volume controls.
It allows for "Pinky Volume Swells" with a nice natural roll-off. Fine control over your volume in the lower range before getting to full loudness. In short... the J TAPER CTS Pot is a high-quality component that will give your electric guitar a brighter overall tone and a smooth vintage feel when adjusting the control knob.
