I recently purchased a replacement pot for my Goodrich 120 volume pot. I noticed right away that it was not a Clarostat pot,made in Mexico. It said "Ohmite" and "Made in Canada". Reguardless, I could not belive the difference what a small thing like a volume pot would make. The highs are cutting through and the lows are deeper. Anyone else have these same results ? Just curious.

Dustin, same deal here. I had a pot go bad on a 1 year old Goodrich. I replaced it with an Ohmite and the lows were very noticeably stronger on my Sho-Buds. (I couldn't beleive Goodrich used these shitty Mex pots) I have also had great luck with O&B and Franklin pots.LA

As a help to you guys, we have the new Canadian pots and have been selling them for several weeks. We have also found that they are much better than the Mexican pots.
Same old price,

George, I bought mine from Rick Troyer at Hummingbird Music Studio's in Sugarcreek,Ohio. You can go to www.hummingbirdmusicstudio.com to get contact info. No offense to you, Bobbe, just trying to help the hometown guy out. Rick is one of the only music retailers in the area who helps us steel guys out. As for Bobbe,I can't begin to say enough nice things about him,I would tell y'all,but it would probably embarass him,cause he is a "tough guy".
