Does Fleor make quality potentiometers? Since you have shared this Iβm going to guess they have claimed the quality. Have you actually used/worked with one or many? π€π And what impression have they made?

Hi UnregπΊ,
I have no idea how these pots would rate and would buy some but my snobby clientele want only CTS or Bourns (which is not their fault, most have never heard of Fleor).
However, I have bought other Fleor parts and felt the quality was pretty good; e.g., Pickguards and a set of Alnico HSS. The look almost exactly like CTS 450GTβs. My guess is that they are an improvement over Chinese pots (excluding Taiwan) and probably would work just fine. But again, thatβs just speculation.

I have installed a set of Fleor pickups (rail type) and the construction and fit was quite good. In terms of sound the customer was well satisfied; their kind of sound. I have also bought some push-push pots from Fleor and they too look very well made and have nice brass parts. Unfortunately I have not yet installed them so can't give a track record about performance/reliability over time, but I do really like the idea they are push-push and not push-pull, a big advantage with Strat type knobs which are hard to pull up.

Oh, I do remember that I have tried the Fleor Push-Push pots. I had a customer that wanted push-push. They worked just fine, quality was as good as an Alpha Taiwan push pull.
I think Iβll but a set of the Fleor pots and report back.
