What potentiometers for Squier Affinity Jazz?

[JamesXP]

The pots on my Squier Affinity jazz are generally a bit scratchy and even a little bit bent.. so they need replacing I'm pretty sure that mini pots are currently fitted..

but are the mini pots any good or should I replace them with the full size ones?

also can you link me to an ebay link that sells the correct type because I've seen so many different sizes and I don't even know anymore aha!

For the cost, I would upgrade to [url="http://www.allparts.uk.com/online-shop/guitar-bass-parts/electronics/250k-pots-c-277_1_81_83.html"]CTS pots[/url]. <<<Link
You don't have to use Mini pots, but it won't make much difference unless the cavity in your bass is really small..
The things you need to know are:
shaft size
split or solid shafts (so that your knobs will fit!)

250k pots will be fine -
(you can use 500k if you want, they are generally a bit brighter sounding so good for humbuckers)

You should use "audio Taper" kind for volume and "Linear Taper" for tone - but you can use Audio Taper for tone too.

250k Audio Taper Mini Pot Split shaft:

If you're not sure thes are right you could post a pic of yours - there are only a couple of sizes...

[b]However, because its a squire, you may have to get a new metal plate because the hole size wont fit a standard CTS pot.[/b]
