two questions about pots (where to buy...)

[Zilla]

hi guys

I have two questions regarding where to buy certain pots.

1.  I'm looking for mini concentric (dual gang?) pots like Boss uses on the metal zone pedals for the tone controls. I'm trying to use a small enclosure and could really use mini dual gang pots like this.  Also, where to get the knobs to fit this would also help a lot!




2. Looking for normal 16 mm alpha pots, but 90 degree pins so i can mount them to the PCB directly.  I know that smallbear has them, but I get all of my parts from another supplier that lets me store BOMs so i can order all the parts for one pedal with 1 click. i'd rather not have to buy everything but pots from one supplier.

Are there board mount pots with longer pins that you can bend 90 degrees?


Thanks muchly

I have this concentric pot:

in four values. I don't think you will find it anywhere else. It's the same style that BOSS uses in a number of pedals and will accept the BOSS knob. I also got a compatible knob made:

BOSS uses this style in 50K linear also. I have a few that I get from Roland and sell as repair parts SKU 1012AB, but the price is necessarily high. I have ordered that value directly from Alpha and will be able to drop the price accordingly.

I regret that my shopping cart software was never designed to permit storing a BOM.
