Where to get a 50K pot for Boss effects ?

[Gil]

I just got a DS-2 with a phisically broken level pot.
The original pot is tiny, any idea where can I get these small sized pots ?
Also, is it likely to be a linear or log ?

Thanks !

You could get away with a 100K pot if you have one on hand.

I've been successful ordering them from my local music store. My place (Long and McQuade in Victoria, BC) wanted to know the control and the pedal it was for, not the value of the pot - i.e. volume for DS-1 not 50k log.

Thanks,

I think I'll need the threaded ones...

The ones from Smallbear are threaded FYI.

That's a 50kA pot, pcb mount, probably 9mm. We don't even have them in stock so try Smallbear...

I've managed to put in a 16mm pot, after sanding the case from the inside...

Thanks
