I am making a comparison graph of different potentiometer tapers that have been used in Historics, as well as, several aftermarket brands. There are many options out there and I think it would be very helpful to see a visual comparison to the tapers used in the ‘50s Centralab pots. However, I’m missing the data from the Centralabs because I don’t have access to any originals. Would anyone out there with some 1950’s uninstalled originals be willing to measure the pot resistance at each knob position from 0 to 10? It’s not really that hard to do but it would require that you have a resistance meter or multimeter. The pots would need to be in fairly good shape. I would settle for just one data set but the more the merrier. I will share the data from all the pots that I have compared to date here on the MLP forum. I have actually already posted my data in an older thread but I have more data now. We can always add more brands or years to the chart in the future. I know that there is some information out there mostly from aftermarket pot vendors but I prefer data from actual vintage centralab pots from independent owners (not affiliated with aftermarket potentiometer manufacturers).
Well, I know this is a longshot but I thought I’d give it a try because I think it would be very helpful and very interesting to see these comparisons visually.
Take care everyone,
