Ed Rafalko	500k audio taper dual pots... I'm in need of a few 500k dual pots with audio taper for a mast vol mod to a Marshall 1987X 50-watt plexi reissue. I have the linears, and am using one, but I want a more gradual increase. Anyone got any ideas on where I can find some?

Ry	check out http://www.muzique.com/lab/potmod.htm for a way to modify your existing pot without having to buy a new one. Ry

Ed Rafalko	Thanks for finding that, I'd have never known where to look. I'm still looking for the audio taper pots, but in teh meantime I'll try this.

Ed Rafalko	THank you, Les. Audio Taper is usually designated with an A in the part nubmer, correct?

Les	Mouser's part number is: 313-2420-500K they have no minimum order... Les

Les	I should add that these have the smaller diameter METRIC size mounting threads and wont fit properly in a standard 3/8" hole such as that used in a Fender.
