Product Reviews
These Omeg pots are great if you are looking to replicate the appearance of vintage fuzz pedals. I like that they have a through shaft so that they can be operated from the rear with a screwdriver while testing. That said I find they are a tad noisy while adjusting, but for pedal use their just fine. Also nice to be able to get an actual 470k rather than 500k. It isn't much, but it makes a difference. If you aren't building a vintage correct fuzz, just use Alpha. The benefits here are 99% visual.
