does anybody know the existence of a breadboard with audio jacks and pots in stock available to buy somewhere?

I don't, but some brands of solderless breadboard provide a clip in plastic plate with mounting holes & slots. Frankly, I find them pretty much useless.

Yeah.  I just keep a few with stranded wire (soldered to a solid "lug" to plug in) for breadboard use.  The stranded wire prevents wire breakage, of course.

ive made all my breadboards TB, with in/out jacks led/ dc...

yes those plastic panels are rubbish...but they are ok, if not abused...

These look cool for $20.. of course you could modify and expand very easily and the acrylic board can be used to mount pots, jacks etc..

Doesn't matter what you did to get it... If it sounds good, then it is good!

Just a heads up just because I own a stack of ^these for IoT projects. I felt they weren't very good and their quality is low, power switch is flaky etc. (maybe I got a bad batch). They are designed with IoT/robot building etc in mind (Arduino/Rasberry etc) and offer 3.3 and 5V.

For pots, I built these up just under three years ago (about 20 of them) and they get constant breadboard use and have held up the entire time. Very easy to just plug in to the bb...



Or you can do this with some PC mountables by filling down the pins, they look better but more work and it's easier to just pull regular pots from 'stock' and tack on some suitable solid copper. Well for me, otherwise if you have 'em use 'em. :)

It has been done; not sure whether this company:

http://www.killertone.com/

is still in biz. With suggestions from a few people here, I made an IdeaBox and IdeaBoard:

for my own use. You can have the kit for the board

http://smallbear-electronics.mybigcommerce.com/kit-build-an-idea-board/

for thirty bucks. It has sold pretty well. Anything that you find fully-built is likely to be much more costly, and not necessarily geared to building effects.
