sweet, was looking at different pot sizes for my gssl, for some reason I felt like the full size would be more precise. 


stumbled across this, in previous post:

Mini vs Full size... Should I care? Besides full size handling more power, is there a real sonic difference?

Sound quality in use will likely be more dominated by how many fingers are on the pot wiper (wiper bounce) and resistive media used.  At some point the pots may get too small to work, but probably haven't yet.

I've used the single ganged pots, and I do like the feel of them.  But, the threads weren't long enough for me to put the nut on on the outside of the front panel.  So mechanically useless.  The dual gang might have longer threads http://www.calradstore.com/25series.html Great for accurate recall, not so great on fine precision.

Cassey-

Looks like they are all out of stock everywhere... cant really find de-tented pots with more than 10 detents...

Arcade doesn't carry them in stock they order from Calred when an order is placed. And if you buy less than 15.00 worth,  calred ships to  arcade then arcade ships to you. But if you order is over 15.00 Calrad will drop ship to you.
