This guy whole left a very long explanation of why these are good pots are great and also a fender cert tech. Well I’m no fender cert tech. Ut I build custom guitars for fun and the statement these are better then CTS just is not true. If you prefer something about a brand be sure you know what your talking about. Fender uses these in squier. Models mainly and they are not as good as CTS going by your own thinking why does fender use CTs in all myvstrats and teles that are made I. America? Why does Gibson only use CTS now ? Well it’s not bc bourn is better. These are good alt to CTS and you save a little $$ I use them for builds I am trying to save a little on. When I measure the output they can be way off so can CTS but the TAOT typically are matched well when you buy. That’s like saying Mooer is the best keyboard bc a guy named Mooer invented synths. Cmon
