Mini 250k pot audio taper reccomendations anyone?

[rainbowreality]

Hello everyone,

I'm about to change the pots in my Squier P bass special. I usually fit a couple of cts full size pots for the volume and a mini alpha pot as I can't fit anything bigger in. I've looked for mini cts pots in vain but no luck, does anyone know a decent alternative? Or am I being a fuss pot and should just use alpha pots?

Audio Taper is the American way of saying logarithmic. So any "LOG" pot would do. CTS are overrated IMO, look for a bornes, especially the blue ones.

Remember a pot is a pot and CTS were the brand Leo choose because they were locally available. There is no magic in CTS.

I just realised you said mini. How small is that? 17mm 16mm 9mm?
