Conventional wah pots are not calibrated for many of today's circuits! Many “boutique” manufacturers either ripped off the old ICAR design, or copied it exactly only to put a new name on it and resell it as their own. (This is NOT an ICAR tapered pot.)
The MCP-II is a culmination of efforts: we worked directly with CTS to design a better performing, more reliable potentiometer for all of us. This new design has 133.3 times the cycle life as the MCP-I and also features tighter torque actuation. It requires NO cleaning, and is moisture/water resistant rated.
The CTS 'Premium Series' McCon-O-Pot II Gen features:
• 100K Impedance
• ROHS Compliant
• 2% Precision Linearity
• 2 Million cycle-life rating
• Robust sealed construction
• Water Resistant Rated (IP54, IP67)
• Wide Temperature Range of operation
• Wonderful (easy) upgrade for almost any wah
• NO CLEANING: "MAINTENANCE FREE" Design
• Drop-in replacement for almost every vintage, or new wah available today
• Pre-installed with an American-Made (heavy-duty) gear, 2 x (heavy-duty) Zinc Washers, 1 x lock washer, and 1 x chrome plated nut.
**Note the travel/sweep symmetry -- and the intentional elongating of the high-end resistance taper. This is what gives you a more pronounced middle area, and feel while playing.**
