Catfish A500K Small Logarithmic Potentiometer

with split shaft large housing.Economy version, with corrugated axle Made by Alpha in Korea.

A 500K logarithmic (also known as audio taper) potentiometer is commonly used in electric guitars for volume and tone control.

At volume the logarithmic potentiometer changes its resistance in a way that matches the human ear’s perception of sound, so this kind of potentiometer offers a smoother and more natural volume adjustment.

The A500K potentiometer is frequently used as a volume control. The logarithmic curve allows for smoother, more gradual volume changes, which is especially important for performing musicians who need precise control

A 500K potentiometer is commonly used with humbucker pickups, which have a higher output than single-coil pickups. The higher resistance allows more of the treble frequencies to pass through, preventing the guitar from sounding too dark or muddy.
