Tip 1: You can use 500K or 250K pots on any guitar with passive pickups (i.e. not battery powered). 500K systems are more common. 250K pots give a slightly "darker" sound.
Tip 2: You can use .47uF or .22uF capacitors. .47uF values are more often used with single coils as they have a greater range ang can help to tame some of the brightness associated with these pickups. a.22uF are more often used with humbuckers, but the 2 types are interchangeable to taste.

Tip 3: Many Epiphone and other "copy" guitars have been routed to accept shorter collar pots (10mm) - most American guitars require longer collar (18mm) due to the thickness of the top.
