I almost always use CTS pots! There are a few occasions when I don't, and that is simply because the cavity won't let me use full sized pots...and that is a very rare occasion! These just work!

Changed 4 pots on a Gibson 335 with these. A 335. So I had to fish everything through the F hole in the guitar. It's nerve wracking and time consuming. After installation, everything functioned perfectly and sounded great.... ... Until I put my tone knobs on. 3 out of 4 pots were ruined in the process. 1 of the 3 came apart completely when the casing tabs gave way. I've changed pots on many guitars over the years, but it has been awhile since the last time. I can't say if the AOT build is any different than any other similarly spec'd CTS pot or if more recent CTS pots use a softer case, but I can say that in this instance the casing metal was softer than it used to be. I feel like screaming. Everything was exactly as I'd wanted it to be and now I have to repeat that whole process. Everything else about the pots was exactly as it should have been. If it had been any other guitar I could have supported the cases as the knobs went on. It's just not that simple with a semi-hollow guitar. Meh.

Used these for my most recent strat wiring harness. They took all the abuse from my poor soldering skills and are no worse for the wear. I am deeply impressed with the stoutness and quality of these pots. Also these are close to the same price for 4 as you would pay for 2, so it's nice to have a few extras In case one of my other guitars needs new ones.
