    Mouser, but I cheated.

    The original sliders have long shafts sticking up through the panel. If your slide pots have all intact slides, you could disassemble them and transfer the long shaft slider things into new slide pots. Probably they are broke off.

    I forget, are those 60mm sliders? WHatever, Mouser sold something the same dimesions in usable values. They didn't match the board, so I lost the board and wired the resistors and stuff point to point, then made up a Molex inline connector so I could unplug the whole slider subassembly from the amp.

    Mounting the new sliders on the frame left the shaft tips just about even with the panel - nothing sticking out for a knob to go on. SO I got some of these knobs, which have the post sticking down. This fit through the slots and over the shafts. Not stock obviously, but looks good. Just don;t do it to someone's collector item.

    Mouser sells these in black or gray for 54 cents.

      Hello, everyone.

      I came here looking for a bit of advice on my old 370 but noticed the dates on all the posts are about 5 years old.

      Anyone still around here that knows 370s?

        Yes but you will get better responses if you start your own thread.
