You mean for R5? It might not bias correctly. Edit: Durf. Missed "pot" in the title.

10K would reduce the minimum fuzz by a LOT. It would also put almost all the actual fuzziness in the very last tiny tiny tiny bit of the pot.

I wouldn't use it. Just pick up a 1Kc with your next parts order. Tayda has them for like 60c.

Are you trying to stop the 'bunching up'?

if so, as 1kC (reverse log) worked great for me..
