Hi guys im new here and i need some help from you. Can anyone explain to me what is the meaning of word "kB" (for example: "GAIN 1MB"). Im trying to build guitar pedal and i need that pot.

My apologies for my english. Im from Croatia =D
 

The first letter means the multiplier for the number, like we use in bytes (k for 'kilo' = x1000, M for 'mega' = x1000000). For instance, 1M means one million Ohms.

The second letter means the type of the potentiometer. There are two types: Linear (B), and Logarithmic (A).
