Kung gusto mo mura lang, sa Lazer. At Php 25.00 or php 30.00 each ata. Pero mas ok yung CTS or Audio taper type na pots.

Sa Audiophile nga meron kaso kumpara sa mabibili mo sa ibang shops. Do good pots really matter tone wise? :-)

Tone wise, I don't give much care. Pero yung quality ng taper niya (useable/noticeable difference from 1-10) at yung tibay niya ang ginagastusan ko. Sa mga cheaper pots kasi, pakiramdam ko ang sweep ay 0-7-8-9-10... parang ganun.. Mabilis pa mag stuck at minsan kahit brand new eh scratchy na agad.

Kung project naman eh walang masama na tipirin. I'd be hesitant to slap on CTS or Bourns pots sa project guitar ko.. siguro Alpha would be my "cheapest" bet kung may makukuha na mura.. Kasi project lang naman eh, don't want to invest too much on it.. Pero it's ultimately your call in the end.  :-)

Hot rodded project guitar. Hehe. \m/
