PLEASE NOTE! 1). Not suitable for import guitars. 2). A long shaft pot is not a drop in fit. You need to use the second hex nut to set the height of the shaft through the body. These pots are for use in U.S. made guitars, and generally with guitars having a control plate.

These 450S custom series pots are identical in construction to CTS's high quality 450G series pots made specifically for guitars.

Great pots at reasonable price and you can only get them here. Note: 1. If you are uncertain whether your guitar uses short (3/8") or long (3/4") shaft pots, as a general rule this pot will fit most USA-made Gibson Les Paul's manufactured after 1977 excluding historic reissues, but please double check before you order. 2. Make sure to pinch the tip of the shaft before you try fitting a knob, this will avoid getting knobs stuck before you install the pot. If you've ever had that happen... 3. If you have an import guitar it is probably using metric sized components and these pots cannot be used without modifying the openings on your guitar.
