CTS push pull pots are of the highest quality and have long been the "go-to" pots for luthiers, guitar tech's and players worldwide. They are also the first choice for many high end guitars.

Push pull pots with a double-pole double throw switch (DPDT) give many wiring possibilities. This is yet another powerful tool for the guitar builder or tech. Two electrically independent components are controlled by a single knob shaft.

This push pull pot is great for series wiring or adding more tonal options to your Strat. eg. using a push pull as a volume control to open up the 7 way wiring option, as well as coil tapping/splitting, series/parallel switching and phase switching with humbuckers.
