    What exactly you were searching for? This should be 1M logarithmic pot (available in almost every shop). Can you post a photo of the pot?

        These potentiometers with four pins are identical to those (Alpha) used by Marshall in TSL/DSL100 and others. Maybe they're easier to find.

            You may want to look into repairing the lead channel pot.
            The crimps at the rear of it appear to be 'uncrimped'.
            Possibly from getting wacked from the front.
            That would make for a very intermittent wiper connection.

              Is it similar to this one: RK11K1120060 ALPS | Mouser just different value? Go to ALPS web site and check distributors in the country where you live.

                Good call, but the back of the pot has a break in it (center), so the wafer is probably broken too.
