I've been doing some reading on the hot rod deluxe and some complaints have been that the volume jumps up rapidly from 1-3 because they use a linear taper on the volume for gain, but some have said you can custom order from a dealer with an audio taper or that ones sold direct to warehouses have the audio taper volume on the gain. But stores like Guitar Center get the linear taper pots...

so what's the deal?

Never heard of that one. The volume jump is one of the main things I don't like about my HRdlx. It makes people that are new to tube amps think it's really, really loud when in fact it really doesn't get that much louder after that initial huge jump and makes it really harder to control at lower volumes.
