Hi:

I'm trying to find out if anyone has used the conductive plastic
potentiometers for guitars and/or for volume pedals for pedal steels
and had positive results with them. Living on the coast with
excessive salt air and sand is not exactly the ideal environment for
carbon pots in terms of getting much useful life out of them.

Actually any modern *sealed* pot with a carbon track is going to be a huge
improvement there. The Alps 9,11 and 12 mm types for example.
