I like the quality of the Claroatats, and you never have to clean them. I use Allen Bradley or Clarostat sealed 2 watt plastic conductive types with the slotted shaft and lock nut. These are fairly cheap(compared to a ten or 25 turn pot) and well made. PS If your amp doesn't use pcb's and there is plenty of room I'd go with the chassis-mounted pots because they seem to be much more durable. Unless it is a vintage and you'd rather not drill another hole in the chassis. (BTW regular trim pots are easier to mount on an eyelet board; the leads on the cheaper cermet trimmers can be broken very easily...) . One advantage with the multi-turn pots is that you can usually dial in the desired bias voltage without having to replace all of the bias resistors a few times until the voltage is in the proper range. (I usually end up replacing the resistor to ground just once to get it right. ) So if you don't mind experimenting with the bias resistors you could try using just a regular 10k trimmer. That of course depends on the amp... on a Peavey Classic 30 I really wouldn't want to take that mofo apart several times just to fine-tune the bias circuit! Steve Ahola Thanks for the info Steve, just don't trust those lil legs in the bias!I guess I'll get out the drill and put in another manly 2watter, hell it's just a fugly homebrew!
