What does Jackson use from the factory on KV2's for the volume and tone knobs? 500K taper pots for both? Taper for volume and linear for tone?!? Any guesses?

Linear or taper pots?

I guess by "taper" you mean audio taper or log taper, which is the "correct" taper for both guitar volume and tone applications.
Linear taper won't work well neither for volume nor for tone pots, as any changes will happen in the last 10% of the pot's taper, so I am quite sure Jackson uses 500K audio taper pots.

Carvin does the exact opposite and uses linear for volume and audio for tone.I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

There's some great info here guys, thanks. But...the original question remains unanswered. What does Jackson currently install in their guitars for volume and tone? Specifically I am interested in the USA select series models (assuming it does not vary from model to model)._________________________________________________
