Not sure if this is the correct place but just I was looking for some info on pots and capacitors.
I’ve looked around and can’t find anything here. With pots I understand the ratings of 250,500K and a lot push pull etc but I don’t understand the physical differences between “normal” . There seem to be so many different threaded diameters, shaft diameters and base diameters. I have a tele kit and was looking to upgrade the pots and spent a lot longer than I’d care to say looking for ones with 6.5mm diameter shafts. I guess I’m missing something. I have 9mm pots I’m thinking of using and making the holes on the control panel bigger so they fit. Can anyone direct me somewhere that there is an explanation of how u can find what pots you need for specific guitars etc?
Also with capacitors i have basically found out in simple terms the higher the uF the “darker” the sound. Anyone have any recommendations for a tele with a neck humbucker? Or is it just a case of personal preference and experimenting?
