Dunlop from Tom Bradshaw,without a doubt.Have tried the so called longlife ones, most only lasted a few months.Got Dunlop from Tom and it was still going eighteen months later when I got a Hilton, it is now my back up pedal and still working when I check it every now and then.

Dunlops, from Tom Bradshaw.

Do a search of the Forum and you will find quite a few discussions.

Been hearing a lot about these..

Probably easier to install than the Dunlop too.. Looks like it would be a drop in replacement... bob

Thanks Bob, that is the exact pot that I sell here on the Forum. To be certain you are getting the High Life pot make sure the model number ends in HL. These are the same pot that Goodrich is currently using in all the volume pedals they make, 120, L120, H10 and L10. I buy them in quantities from Goodrich Sound Company.
