Sunn Beta Lead gain pot
« on: January 04, 2018, 03:58:28 pm »
Hello all I have old Beta Lead with a bad gain pot and I’m having a hell of a time trying to find a 16mm 1m linear dual gang pot with a D shaft. I’ve looked all over the web with no luck I even contacted Fender... Any one know where I can find something remotely similar?

I search Mouser Electronics for these kind of items. They have a huge selection of pots. You may have to improvise a bit? You could also check ebay for some scavenged pots that are the same.

Oh I did both mouser and eBay ended up getting one from Small Bear then I used a file to cut the D shaft what a pain in the ass but the amp works fine now.
