I can't tell for sure, obviously. All I can say is my Helix LT was not good in the input section, as I already said sometimes. It made something to the signal which I didn't like.When switching the HX series inputs from 1MOhm to anything else, the differences in volume pot behaviour are *incredibly* obvious, pretty much drastical even. With each and every passive guitar.
That said, I didn't notice excessive differences in tone from 500k up.
When I have some time, I'll try to experiment with a 10M pre I have, to see if the volume put makes something weird. As for now, I've read lots and lots of docs related to impedances in audio, and the only thing I could think that might affect the volume pot is just its relationship with input impedances, since the pot is just another impedance (variable). Never ever read anything about input impedances that would cause problems with guitar pot. This is the first time. It's always related to frequency transference.
