Yes...I'm a seasonal Luthier and active guitar player in the last 40 years. I've been buying Gibson pots in the last few years when I needed to replace any of my Les Paul guitar pots (volume / tone). In the two months, I started buying a few cheap pots from Amazon (1/2 and 1/3 of the price) from non-brand from 3rd Party companies. I thought I was smart saving money. Then I started to realize, these non-brands do NOT sound like my original Gibson sound. I started to think, my wiring were "wrong." Then went back to revisit my wiring skills. Lol. It took me 3 weeks (80 hours) later...and I finally went back to zZounds site to buy a real Gibson pots. Overnight later, I installed these new Gibson pots (Long shaft)...and man, it wasn't me. It's the non-brand pots. I couldn't be happier. Thanks to zZounds. They sent this to me overnight. Love it.
Sound
Only ONE word, "Gibson" ---if you want the real sound with the clean, clear, bright, tight, sound what you bought from the store.
Features
Smooth transaction and smooth and bright sound.
Ease of Use
I like to use the modern wiring in Gibson's current schematics. It makes my sound very modern and thick and powerful with strong GAIN when you want to go everything from: Jazz, Blues, Pop, to Rock/Metal. Love it.
Quality
It's a "Gibson" sound. I will never buy 3rd party non-brand anymore. If you want your sound, go Gibson. Period.
Value
The Gibson's price is always a little more than non-brand from 3rd Parties. But it's very worthy - if you want to get the "sound."
Manufacturer Support
Love zZsound. I used to buy from Musicianfriends (years ago) and then to zZound. I started buying from Sweetwater in the last 9 years. I did not like their new Sell rep guy...so I went back to zZound (lol). My last product was bought from zZound for my Gibson LP Goldtop Classic in 2017.
The Wow Factor
5 out of 5 Stars. The transaction was fast. The product is the sound I want and need. Installed these pots within an hour...and I'm able to play again. No issues. I will buy Gibson's pots anytime. Now...I'm going to buy from zZound to replace my two Epiphone LP as well to get Gibson's pots.
