just re-wired one of my favorite guitars and had to use mini pots. i used alpha 500k mini pots; believe they were around $3 each. i have noticed a little bit of interference/scratchy sounds when turning the volume knob sometimes...this is the first time i have had to use a minipot and this is a problem i have never encountered before with standard sized pots. to be clear, the sound is not THAT big a deal...just enough to be noticeable; and only occurs when i turn the knob abruptly

all that said, which pots are considered the best when it comes to mini pots?

thanks!
 
Alphas work fine. Just squirt some deoxit into the pot if they're scratchy (something you will occasionally have to do with any pot eventually).
