How to fake a "G taper" potentiometer
Posted: Wed Feb 01, 2023 2:19 pm
I created this when I was thinking about a HM-2 clone. The HM-2 uses "G taper" potentiometers for the two tone controls, and G taper pots are impossible to get.
If you use a 50k linear pot and a pair of 12k resistors you can fake the 10k G taper pot needed for a HM-2:
. By adjusting values, this also works if you want to fake a "W taper" pot.
