Title: center tap pot
Post by: birt on October 09, 2007, 07:15:55 AM
these seem very hard to find so i was wondering if there is any way to get around this...

i was trying to get what resembles a CT pot by connecting various lugs of a stereo pot but it didn't work out. is there any way to make a pseudo CT pot?

  Center 'detent' maybe? Has a notch to find the middle position?
  Center tap is a term used for tranformers mostly.

i didn't find that topic, tnx! not easy to do tough. especially since i have to replace at least 2 (shafts broken off completely so i HAVE to replace them)

it's for the super twin reverb mentioned there.
