Guest MoJo Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Hi all Can anyone recommend the best place to obtain some B50K minipots with a centre detent to replace the non-detent type minipots in my Peavey Fury V? Are these likely to have a linear or audio taper? I also need a new blend control pot. This is a dual pot marked B500K Here is the wiring diagram below.

icastle Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 A is log, B is linear. Therefore, a B50k is linear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My example is the general accepted standard now. The 'old standard' used A for linear and C for log. If you'd specified 'A50k' then things could have got confusing.

tauzero Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 They'll be linear as it's a symmetrical configuration - linear is symmetrical about the centre detente, log isn't. And I suspect that centre-detented log pots would be rather rare birds too.

Guest MoJo Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I reckon they'd be perfect John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
