Can someone tell me which volume pot I would need?

[357mag]

I would like to pick up a few spare volume pots for my Epi Les Paul, in case I fry one during a pickup swap. As I am unfamiliar with Les Pauls, could someone post a link or something that would show me which pot I would need?

I know the Les Paul that I will be getting in a day or two (the one that I would be changing pickups in) has that coil splitting feature where you pull up on the knob and I guess it goes to single coil.

I'm unsure about the length of the shaft though. I thought maybe some of you that own an Epi Les Paul already know what goes in there.

you need push/pull pots, most probably 500K, likely of the longer shaft length type. I don't own a coil-spliting LP so i dont know the specifics, but i have done lots of parallel/series wiring on my strat.

You don't need long shaft pots with Epi's LP's (I've rewired many). I get mine from StewMac.

You will most likely want 500k pots. For the coil split you want either Push pull or Push Push pots. I prefer push push pots.

I got two pots coming from Guitar Parts Resource, but I wonder if they will work on an import Les Paul? Will they fit?

ooh, not sure. import LPs usually have ohm spacers that may be hard to source.
