20$ guitar pots ?

Are the Dunlop guitar sealed pots worth the extra bucks ?

Waste of money in my opinion. If they were going to be used in an environment that was dusty or where a fan is constantly pulling in garbage then yes, definitely worth it. For a pot in a guitar? I’d go with CTS or Emerson if you want to spend the extra bucks.

But that’s just my opinion.

You think CTS or Emerson are carefully gauged so that rhere is no "jump" of sound , that they are even througjout the travel ?

Every Emerson pot I’ve installed has been very accurate and dependable.
