I got an original Jordan Bosstone from a friends dad.  He likes it and used it all the time until the volume and fuzz knobs broke.  Does anyone know where I can get a replacement that may work.  It doesn't have to be a perfect match but has to make it functional again.  Thanks

  It'd work fine with broken knobs, so I assume you're referring to 'broken potentiometers.
  Small Bear sells a very nice selection of pots of ROTM and 'strange' values.
  You can look up the JB Schematic and read the values, and trust they're the same as what was in your box, or measure the pots that came out, or possibly their potwafer R values...

I found a perfect match on e-bay with the Olson mixer.  Little two channel chrome thing that has the exact knobs.

Here is the one that I might have overpaid for (but I got two good knobs and the pots!)
