Easy to install If you own a low wattage soldering iron and know how to use it.The pot retrofits into my Crybaby Wah and probably most wahs but requires soldering the wires to the pot and remembering the wire placements.

Excellent.My wah originally had an Allen Bradley 100K pot that I was happy with but it became noisy,too noisy.Then I tried a Dunlop Hot Potz 2 pot but could never get used to the taper of that pot no matter how I ajusted it.I had heard of the Real Mc Coy Wahs and the pots they were using were said to be remakes of some really good sounding wah pots so I decided to give them a try.The Rok Pot2 has a value of around 183K omhs and I wasn't sure how this would affect the sound of my wah but after installing it and finding the range which didn't take long I was greeted with a smooth sweep of the wah effect,it sweeps a little different from the the original part but not in a bad way.It allows you to milk single notes and chords very evenly with out abrupt steps like I found using the Dunlop Hot Potz 2.It allows me a little more control over the wah effect on music passages,like being able to work in different ranges of the sweep with even control,smooth very smooth.

I think its an exellent sounding pot, a little different, the control over the wah effect from the original pot but I like the control it gives me.The physical feel of the Rok Pot2 pot(turning) is smoother than my original pot but not as smooth as the Dunlop Hot Potz 2 pot.

Perfect 10. Sounds like Disraeli Gears...and then some. The voicing of the Teese components are perfect - extremely noticeable difference before and after the mod. I first put in the inductor and tried it out - GREAT! Then I added the ROC-POT2 and that was all she wrote. The only advice I have is to put some time into setting the position of the gear on the pot and keep a fresh battery in there. Outstanding!!!!

These parts are quality and I hope to never have a problem but I am going to buy another inductor and ROC-POT2 and put them away for 20 years from now - just in case. Seriously.
