I'm looking to install a coil split mod on my PRS with a push/pull potentiometer. I converted it from the 5 way rotary to the 3 way swtich option and I miss being able to get single coil tones. My problem, though, is that I have been unable to find a full size 500K push/pull pot to do this mod with. All I can find are mini-pots like this. Where can I find what I'm looking for?

Ive gotten a full size push/push (much better than push/pull) from stew-mac before.

I'm not sure what you mean by quot;full size push/pull pot.quot; All DPDT push/pulls are mini pots, they are smaller in size than a standard CTS pot, but they have the same mounting dimensions. Dimarzio makes the highest quality push/pull pots on the market, everyone else just repackages the same made in Taiwan junk. I would advise ordering a 500k audio tapered Dimarzio push pull. Don't get the cheap ones.

I've got 'em in stock. Almost a full size pot with full size bushing. It's a long shaft pot but it should work fine in your PRS. $12. from : localhost/ Thanks! Lew

Those will work, but you'll need two of them as you can only split one pickup with these. But they are made by CTS, so they are top quality parts. If you just want to split both pickups at once using only on push/pull, you'll need a DPDT pot.

We have them as well, in long or short shaft. I have not had any complaints about there quality. Leave a message and I'll let you know the price for them.

I bought some from Kevin at Blackrose, but there are just sitting here unused as I went back to the Antiquities from the A2P/CC 4-wire pups recently. If/when I eventually put the A2p/cc back in, I'll give them a whirl.

There's nothing inherently wrong with those, I just prefer the Dimarzio push/pulls. They have a more solid rotation to them, and the switch feels much sturdier. The Allparts ones that everyone sells have a very loose feel which I've never liked, and I've had the switches go bad on two of them. Forum member Kent_S recommended that I try the Dimarzio push/pulls, and I now use them anytime I need those extra switching options. Dimarzio has these custom made for them, rather than repackaging Allparts stuff like all the other manufacturers do.
