Standard guitar pots limit your musical expression, only starting to
deliver sound at about 3 on the dial and then never getting much
louder above 7. DiMarzios custom taper pot is made to solve that
problem, by precisely delivering the same ratio of signal-to-turn as an
actual 10-position actuator. This provides players with audiophile-like
control over dramatic volume swells and signal gain, so you can truly
use the guitars total range. And dont worry about wearing these out —
each pot is rated to 10,000 cycles at 2,000 cycles per hour and is
individually tested by DiMarzio to meet our rigid standards.
