A Fender potentiometer, commonly referred to as a "pot," is a variable resistor used in Fender guitars and amplifiers to control volume, tone, or other parameters. These pots are essential components of the electronic circuits within Fender instruments and amplifiers. They typically consist of a resistive element connected to a rotating shaft, which adjusts the resistance as the shaft is turned. This, in turn, alters the voltage or current flowing through the circuit, thereby affecting the volume or tone of the instrument. Fender pots come in different values and types to suit various applications and player preferences. They're crucial for fine-tuning the sound and playability of Fender guitars and amps.
