Okay you guitar fixer upper dudes, I have a guitar with an EMG-81 in it, I need to replace both the volume and tone pots. Problem is, I cannot read the spec on the back of the pot's because of all the solder. I believe the tone pot is 25k (not 100% sure) but I cannot see the number on the volume. It has been so long since I installed this pickup that I cannot remember for sure what they were, I am thinking 750k perhaps for the volume (again,don't know) If anyone knows for sure, I would appreciate any info.
 
Thanks brandrum, I check that site out already and I couldn't find the info. I am looking for.

Hey g string

Actually both the volume and tone pots are 25k.

no problem...I didn't bother to read it...just figured it was worth a shot.
 
Other than size, is there a difference between the larger and the smaller sized (mini) pots?

Both 25k, and no, there is no significant difference between the large and small pots.
