I have a question about reversing pcb mount pots… I am using the 9mm pcb mount pots in the killer bee. However, I would like to stagger the tone pot (middle)… so it’s alignment would be reversed in the pads. (so I end up with the triangle knob layout as opposed to straight across). If I change the pot from A50k to C50K would this work?
If I visualize your pot correctly, you would end up with lugs 1 and 3 reversed. This would mean that the pot rotation would function in reverse. i.e. CW rotation would result in more bass, less treble. If you hand wire the pot, you can maintain the correct orientation.
