Anyone know where I might find a replacement pot for a danelectro daddy-o? I believe it is a 20k audio taper. Couldn't find any 20k pots from Mouser, but found this one on Digikey...

The dano pot shaft is  black plastic with a little notch on the top, not flat on one side like the one in the link above. It looks like this one from Mouser, http://www.mouser.com/catalog/specsheets/TW-700180.pdf but the shaft is too short on these.

ayayay!

That sure looks similar.  Can you look at the datasheet and see if the width of the shaft is the same? 

PM me though if you want me to send you one salvaged from a dead Daddy O.   ;D

I believe the shaft width is the same, except at the top, where the pot from digikey flattens out. I'll see if I can get a picture when I get home.
