Variable resistor

A variable resistor comprising:

• a first substrate having a first main surface;
• a resistor disposed on the first main surface;
• a first wiring pattern disposed on the first main surface and connected to the resistor;
• a spacer having an opening;
• a second substrate that:
• has second and third main surfaces, and
• is disposed on the first substrate via the spacer such that the second main surface is opposed to the first main surface;
• a connecting body that is:
• disposed on the second main surface such that the connecting body is disposed in the opening, and
• configured to electrically connect to the resistor by pushing of a pusher from the third main surface;
• and
• a second wiring pattern that is either:
• disposed on the first main surface and configured to be electrically connected to the connecting body by the pushing of the pusher;
• or
• disposed on the second main surface and connected to the connecting body, wherein
• in a plan view, the connecting body has a non-overlap region that does not overlap with the resistor,
• in a plan view, a pushing region in which the pusher can push is included in the non-overlap region, and
• a resistance value between the first wiring pattern and the second wiring pattern is changed based on a pushing position of the pusher.
