Best Replacement Pot for Goodrich 120?

OK so I know I am a dinosaur, but I like a pot pedal. I'm down to one working pedal. I went back and read posts about doing surgery on the Allen Bradley 500K J type pots. I tried and failed. So...What is the happening pot and what is the best source for them?

Many thanks,

TC

I've gotten my most recent replacements from Frenchy, in New Mexico. I believe Bobbe Seymour has them, also.

Clarostat is garbage; so the only thing left that is new is the Omite and I just put one in a friend's pedal and it actually sounds dang close to the AB 500K Type J Pot;(that's what I have in my old Sho-bud pedal)....nice and clear. So find out who sells that(can't remember where I got it; but Paul Franklin Sr. suggested it) and get ya one...

I have a 120 also and it is in need of pot replacement.
I called Goodrich and they said just send it down with about $50 and they'll fix it.

That price includes shipping, but you'll have to pay to send it down, too.

The price was either $49 or $51 - not quite sure.

TC,
I got some from www.digikey.com at a good price. Their part number is KA5041S28-ND. So far so good with these pots; not perfect but mostly scratch-free.
