BLENDER POT VALUE?

[zozoe]

Hi all,,, I already have one of these on my main Strat, but just curious to know if the Blender pot value should match whatever pot values I'm using? 250k blender for SC's, and/or a 500k blender for HB's,,, OR no matter?
Thanks & be well!

Re: BLENDER POT VALUE?

It doesn't matter as long as it's no load so that when it's on 10, you'll have the pure sound from neck or bridge. You can also choose what taper you'd like with linear or audio.

BLENDER POT VALUE?

Depends on the kind of blend circuit and what other components are in the circuit. For example, a balance/blend pot instead of a switch will interact with any volume controls so a higher value is better. For the Telecaster version that is a single pot that isn’t grounded, I’m not convinced the value matters.
