Left handed pots

[Kip Kersey]

Hi everyone. I just rewired and soldered the control plate on my left handed fender jazz bass with new pots. Everything is working except that when I turn my pots up they turn the volume down and vice versa. Have I wired it incorrectly or are left handed pots ‘ a thing’?

Left-handed pots are most definitely a thing, but this only has to do with the taper on logarithmic pots. Linear pots are "symmetric". If your pots work in the opposite direction, you have wired them wrong.

Can you put a pic up ? I'm sure some tech minds will see any problem straight away.
