I am working on a sequencer project where pitch is voltage controlled and I am finding there is not nearly enough position.  I tried a multi-turn 10k trimmer and it worked perfectly but when I went to find full size multi turn pots they are either at least $10-15 or $3-4 from China + 15-30 wait.  Was wondering if anyone knew of any US suppliers with reasonable prices?  Most of my googling has just led me to suppliers that source from the same Chinese manufactures with the requisite delivery times.  Would love to find a local source selling 10K Ten Turn Pots for $3-$4 each, but maybe that just isn't possible?

Maybe someone like Steve at ApexJr has something kicking around. I've read it's best to phone, one man show, he'll know if it's in his warehouse.

Actually has a Bourns 10 turn 2k for $5 on the website but the website doesn't begin to scratch the surface of his stock.
