Upgrade your guitar or bass with the premium CTS 500K Audio Taper Pro Potentiometer featuring the V-Treb™ Variable Treble Bleed Circuit by Precision Music Technologies.

This versatile, direct-fit upgrade suits many electric guitars, delivering smooth, low-noise performance while improving clarity, treble response, and tonal consistency at lower volume settings.

The innovative V-Treb™ Variable Treble Bleed/Bypass Circuit eliminates the common problem of high-frequency loss when rolling back your volume control. Unlike fixed treble bleed circuits, the V-Treb™ allows you to precisely adjust how much treble bypasses the volume pot as the volume is reduced, giving you complete control over your tone. Dial in anything from a warmer, smoother response to a brighter, more articulate sound at lower volume settings.

At full volume (10), the V-Treb™ is automatically bypassed and completely removed from the signal path, ensuring it has no effect on your guitar's natural tone.

V-Treb™ Variable Treble Bleed/Bypass Circuit Features

• Improves volume taper response between settings 6 and 10 for smoother, more usable control.
• Preserves clarity and high-end detail as volume is reduced.
• Has no effect on tone when the volume control is set to 10.
• Allows precise adjustment of tonal brightness at lower volume levels.
• Ideal for both guitar and bass volume controls.

CTS Potentiometer Specifications
