Fender generally uses 250K pots, and Gibson generally uses 500K potentiometers. You can always experiment and try different ones. Maybe you'll find something that gives you the tone your looking for.

the squier ones looked to be 500k .. hopefully theyll sound sweet. i bought the short shaft gibson pots .. Ill let you guys know how she sounds when the rest of the parts come in. thanks
