Where to get bourns pots?

[lemongonggong]

Hey Guys,

Anyone know I can get Bourns mini audio taper pots here in Singapore?

I want to get the mini push-pull pot, the mini blend pot and the usual mini pots..


On another note, would the resistance of a 500k volume and a 250k tone pot be
the same as a 500k volume pot, a 500k blend pot and a 500k tone pot?


Thanks

question. what so special about them?

From what I gathered, Bourns has the sealed pots which is supposed to give long lasting operation, and since it is plastic encased, noise and humming is virtually zero. Hmm, now I'm curious about where to get them too!

Well, I m currently finding stuff for my archtop and I require mini pots in order to fit it under the pickguard.

From what I have gathered, alpha pots don't seem to have lotsa good reviews.

CTS pots seems to have bad QC these days..

Bourns pots, on the other hand, have good reviews. Furthermore, they have the mini push pull pot and
the correct mini blend pot that I want.
