5-JUN-2014
This article gets a little (a lot, actually) on the techy side of things.
When it comes to potentiometers for guitars, there’s this thing called taper. There are 4 kinds of tapers, and the designations for each are logarithmic (also known as audio), linear, reverse logarithmic and graphic.
