Maybe some of you steelers/guitarists can help me.
I am looking for 1 meg reverse audio taper pots for a strat i am changing pups in. I am replacing some vintage lace sensors with some vintage noiseless pups. And for ideal tone.. I need 1meg rev. audio tapers pots.. i am left handed. Good thing I don't need left handed strings!!
Thanks for reading!!

I think all you have to do is reverse the WIRING,,,,,

Leave the center wire as it is, and just reverse
the 2 wires on the 2 outside connections.

Probably not going to find what you are looking for, but if you're inclined to dig around, you may find something here:

I laughed when I first saw your post. I read it too quickly and thought you were looking for left handed guitar picks Laughing Laughing Laughing
Reversing the wiring won't do it for you unless they are linear pots. What you want are reverse tapered log pots, then reverse the wiring. They should not be too hard to find in an electronic supply house.
