  • Anyone know where to get the Fender silverface push/pull master volume pots?

    Anyone selling these anymore, or have a supply on hand they want to get rid of? I know there are "other pots" that will do that job, but I'm looking specifically for those for a reason, and it isn't to do "that job".

    I have never seen them for sale.
    I had one where the push/pull shaft was siezed.
    Someone had sprayed contact cleaner down the shaft.
    Cleaned it up real good!
    Now it was bare aluminum (the shaft) on bare bronze (the bushing).
    I had to push it out with an arbor press

      I ran across some on Antique Electronics website a while back Not sure if they are exact, but they look the part. They stock a 10K and 1M that are of that form factor.

        So they are full size pull switch pots with 3/8 bushing?

        Other than Fender replacements, Mesa uses similarly described pots on the Mark amps, don't know if the values are suited to your project.
        Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned.

          They are full sized, dual contacts, and they are CTS type so you can pull them apart and replace the wafer with any other CTS wafer you want, to make whatever value you want. That's why I'm trying to get hold of some, they are perfect for mod projects.
