CTS 250K - 450G Series Short Shaft Linear Taper - Pro pots for Guitar & Bass
Premium Components - Manufactured by CTS Corporation
The CTS 250k linear potentiometer is mainly used for tone control in guitars equipped with single-coil pickups (such as Fender Stratocaster, Telecaster, and Jazzmaster models). This pot offers precise and uniform adjustments.
It is occasionally employed for volume control. Its linear curve means that the resistance changes directly and uniformly as the knob is turned. This makes it perfect for achieving fine, gradual adjustments, in contrast to the rapid resistance increase found in audio-taper (logarithmic) pots.

Shaft Material: Brass - Threaded Shaft Diameter: 3/8" (.375")
Thread height, Short shaft 3/8" (9.52mm) - Threaded Shaft Material: Brass

If your guitar is an import... and you want to update the pots, you may have to enlarge the diameter of the holes on the body very slightly.
When installing a knob, be sure to pinch lightly on both sides of the end of the shaft toward the center before installing it. This will prevent you from applying too much pressure and breaking the pot. If this has never happened to you before...
Any questions... please feel free to contact us.
