Hey all,
Ok, so i'm planing a new guitar build at the moment. But in it, i'm looking into replacing the standard pots with membrane ones. That's being massively optimistic, i know, and it's asking for problems right from the start. I'm a bit of a beginner when it comes to circutry, like i know the basics, but thats about it. So here's where i stand.
Basically, i need two pots. A 250k ohm one, and a 500k ohm one. I can have membrane versions of these made, but at $2000 a pop, thats out. HOWEVER, i can get two 10k ohm ones for about $20 each. Now, obviously 10k is a long way off 250k. So my new problem is, is there a way i can use a 10k ohm, in place of the 500k or 250k. Like can i put extra resistors in or something?? or does anyone have any other suggestion as to how i could have a touch controled variable resistance of 250k/500k.
thanks all.
