Partscaster - Seymour Duncan JB 250K Push/Pull Pot

[Mincer]

What is this concentric shaft pot you speak of?

It is a special pot that uses 2 differently-sized knobs.

i have two concentric knobs on a washburn wms. i wantesd 500k volume and tone for the neck and 500k volume/250k tone for the bridge to tame just a touch of high end. takes a bit of getting used to but it happens quickly

I found concentric knobs kinda cumbersome - not so easy to dial 'em intuitively without looking down.
If you're short on room for knobs I guess it's a viable option for tone controls, which don't get used quite as often.
But for me a dual concentric volume knob would be very inconvenient.

I just wired up a strat with a JB in the bridge and a 250k volume only and it sounds perfect. You should be good. Just adjust the pup height on the bass and treble sides.

I just came across this Mojo Tone CTS Push-pull Potentiometer - Short Shaft - 250k - I think that might work in my Partscaster as I would think it would take short shaft, not long shaft:

That's good, you only need a short shaft to install it on a pickguard.

Ok cool, I think the knob on it right now is one with a set screw so I couldn't use it with that pot right?

Bought the Mojotone 250k short shaft push pull potentiometer yesterday and dropped guitar off at guitar repair shop this mornin and having pot installed wired Series/Parallel instead of splitting to single coil.

Aceman thanks! I won't get rid of that logo, that was the guy's logo that put the Partscaster together and everything for me.
