Push/pull pots

Updated
Nevermore

In the process of replacing the electrics & pickups on my 92 ESP Sunburst Tiger.

The push/pull pot is 250k is this what the guitar would have come with as all my other guitars are normally 500k from the factory.

whats the difference between a 250k & 500k

Pushead

The traditional thinking is that a single coil pickup goes to a 250k pot and humbuckers go to a 500k pot.  With all other things being equal, a higher resistance potentiomenter will allow more high-end through the circuit when the volume is at 100%.  It works in a similar way with the tone pot.
