Excellent Pot
Great pots, made in China tho - I thought CTS were made in Taiwan? Despite that these feel very positive and measured with a multimeter I'm getting 260 and 240k, respectively, thats to within 1% of the +/- 5% allowed. Gone are the day when we perceived M.I.C. as cheap rubbish, Chinese manufacturers are world class now, only gripe is price at nearly £12 a pop - but still worth the money if you want to trick out your guitar with quality.

The gold standard for a reason
If you're looking at CTS pots, you already know they are good. Are they worth the extra few quid over cheaper brands? YES. Really gentle taper - gives much more options tone/volume wise. They are legit - buy them, your guitar will love you for it :) :)

Not convinced they are genuine
I've used CTS pots for years and am very familiar with the resistance and feel, these feel all wrong. Firstly, way too little resistance, I don't remember CTS pots ever being this easy to turn, they feel more like Bourns pots. Also several of my pots feel gritty to turn and are audibly noisy, very disappointing!

Fenderの純正品と比べると操作時にざらつきを感じる。 安ギターの交換部品としては十分だと思うが他の選択肢もあったかな…。
