Can you tell me about this pot??

My bass player picked this pot with electronics out of a Macgyver box at a guitar shop. Any info on this??

Looks like a 100k pot from 1986 - I'm guessing for an emg active system? Maybe one of those active mid boost thingamabobs?

It's a boost of some kind. The LF441CN is an OP Amp. You have to run a signal through it to see what it does. Peace. J.J.B.

Definitely looks like an older (non surface mount parts) EMG mid boost or treble booster. If it works it might be worth a few bucks.
