Small bear has 5k versions of them....is 2.5k alright?  You could put a 5k resistor in parallel to it and get 2.5kpot. 
Sorry I'm not any more helpful.

yeah thats a possibility.
1k would be soooo easy though!
the circuit im working on already has a 5k dual gang in it so maybe i'll give that a whirl.

You could try futurlec.
They have a few dual 16mm post.
Split shafts but they work fine with set screw knobs...

POT1KDUAL     <--- Part # at futurlec.

Also, they only have pcb pins. I usually just stick wires through the little holes, works fine for me.

The fact that futurlec has 1k dual gang pots made by alpha means they do exist, though. Now its just a matter of finding them A stock.
