What is the difference between A pots and B pots?

"A" would denote an audio taper pot (most of the control happens between 7 - 10) and the "B" suffix would denote a linear taper pot (more even roll-off between 0 - 10)

A and B pots however are interchangeable and the only difference is the taper of the pot, or "how gradually it rolls off". Most manufacturers use either 2 x audio taper (A) pots for volume + tone or would use audio taper (A) for volume, and linear taper (B) for tone. This is also determined by player preference
