Anyone know what pots are in ESP's?

Can't find info on what they use.

I have a 2011 SS nt-ii Horizon and the pots are going out. Wasn't sure what the brand and values were and wanted to know so I can replace them.

Active pickups need 25k, passive humbuckers 500k.

Note that these might have metric sized pots though.

As said above and either metric coarse spline or American fine spline..metric 10mm shaft/hole,american 3/8'' diameter shaft/hole.

Have you tried just cleaning them with DeoxIt?

A few months ago when I got the guitar the pup was cutting out so I brought it to a tech to rewire.
He sprayed it a little then but that was a few months back.

Today the pup runs fine but the tone knob is scratchy and the volume is weird. When you get to the zero point, some volume comes back.

I figured it was just time for some new pots but I wasn't sure exactly what brand/type comes with the guitar. My ibanez volume does the same thing too. I can get it dead quiet at 1 or so but when the volume knob is at 0 some volume comes back. Very annoying.

My 2007 Horizon NT-II came with a 500k CTS low drag volume pot. I replaced it with a 1meg CTS.

I took some pics of the original parts for you:
