thanks for the note. you are right about there being a problem with that text. i can only guess that i meant “with the complete resistive strip between lug2 and lug1.”

One thing I noticed which confused me a little . . . "On the other hand, when the pot is “turned up” (fully clockwise), lug 2 is connected directly to lug 3 with the complete resistive strip between them." Should this be "...lug 2 is connected to lug 3 without any resistive strip between them" OR "...lug 2 is connected to lug 1 with the complete resistive strip between them" ?

Shouldn't this be "... ground connected to lug 1..."? “If you hook up a volume pot the way the voltage divider is drawn in the schematic, with the voltage source connected to lug 3, ground connected to lug 2, and the output connected to lug 2 …”

Shouldn’t this be “… ground connected to lug 1…”?
