Guys,
I need a new pot for an old Goodrich VP quickly because I have some shows coming up and can't wait for online stores. I will Paypal the money immediately.
Whatever pot is normally in these pedals or better. If it matters I play a Mullen RP thru a Nashville 400.
Thanks,
John

For a short-term fix available immediately, go to Radio Shack and spend the $3.99 for their 500K audio taper pot.
It won't last more than a few months, so order a Bradshaw pot to have on hand. That's what I'd do

| If your problem is a scratchy sounding pot, you might try carefully drilling a small hole in the pot casing and spraying some contact cleaner inside(Deoxit with lube added recommended, green can). This may get you through until your new pot arrives. |

Google "Columbus Ohio electronics supply". Looks like there's a Micro Center and an ESCO that might have that pot. Call them and ask for the part Lane suggested.
edit: You might also contact a music store that has a good reputation for amp repair. They'll most likely have that pot and can possibly do the repair for you. |
