Title: Tone pot for Boss DS-1?
Post by: ungarn on September 27, 2008, 05:00:20 PM
I managed to destroy the Tone pot in my Boss DS-1 that I am modding.

1.  What kind of pot is it...best as I can tell 15k linear taper...can anyone confirm?

2.  More importantly...where can I buy a replacement?

Thanks in advance!

It's 20k linear.  I'd look for the closest value you can find from the usual suspects: Small Bear, Mouser, etc.

Mucho thanks!  I used the advanced search to find the thread I started, and it did not look like anyone replied.  I'll check Small Bear.

I was just saying he answered you 3 days before you asked for help again. Besides, if I didn't say anything you would have probably never of seen it.
