Description

We at Emerson Custom formerly had our own spec’d line of “Emerson PRO CTS pots” but when 2020 rolled around and the supply chain blew up, it was finally time to take matters into our own hands. Faced with lead-times that were 20x longer than that of during a normal time, Mitch was stuck between a rock and a hard place. He didn’t have access to his own supply of his spec of CTS pots because all the major brands were vying for anything and everything they could get from the factories. Mitch was tired of simply accepting the industry norm that CTS pots are “good enough”, or the “best” available. So, he set out to create his very own design and brand of in-house pots that not only look familiar but are built to an incredibly consistent feel and function from lot to lot. It took a ton of money, time and effort, but we feel that these new Emerson PREMIER PRO pots are the best pots available… PERIOD.  We weren’t constrained by an off the shelf spec sheet of options to choose from. 

We designed and developed these pots from the ground up. The feel and consistency from pot to pot is incredible. We put extra care into the little details to make sure these translate to the end user. We built these to be rugged and reliable. We chose to use robust Fiberglass as the substrate the solder lugs and resistive track are mounted to because its super strong, rigid, and won’t easily bend and snap like those in most every guitar. The taper we used on these is a custom 20% Audio Taper that is a proprietary design from Emerson. This taper works equally as well in the volume position as it does in the tone position. Our Solder lugs are a unique design… slightly oversized for plenty of room to run ground wires/buss wires and any other connection you need to the pot lugs.
