Does CTS make a push/pull for 3/8" holes like an SG?

I know this was discussed before, but I saw there was a generic push/pull on Guitar Electronics.com and the height was 1", which just so happens to be the same depth as the SG control cavity. I would prefer CTS pots, but the only push/pull CTS I have seen was for long shaft Les Paul guitars.

Thanks.

i have some short shaft p/p cts pots in a guitar so they must be avaviable, not sure where. lew, you carry these things?

I'd be interested in knowing where you got them. I'm pretty sure CTS only makes the long shaft SPST push/pull pots. I've never seen a CTS pot with a DPDT push/pull switch. What guitar do you have them in, and are they 500k or 250k?

Hi Guys, Yes I stock push/pull pots in 250K and 500K for $9.00 but they are not 3/8" diameter shaft...they're the smaller diameter metric shaft. They work fine in a 3/8" hole as long as you use the lock washer that's provided. I've never installed one in a Gibson Les Paul but they work just fine in Epiphone Les Pauls. I'll use them to replace the two tone controls and then a guy can split each pickup individually. Thanks for the plug Jeremy!

Lew... what brand are they?

I don't know who actually makes them but they're the Allparts pots...I buy them by bulk, 50 or so at a time. They measure 1" depth. Maybe they're the same pots Guitar Electronics offers. They work just fine whatever they are and seem to last a long time. Lew
