It has an ab type j pot ....what kind of pot is this. I have had the pedal for over 10 years. I have got to replace the pot in my goodrich pedal with the 500 k ohm...should I just keep this pot or get a new one for the fender pedal...I know you old school types are just itching to have this pedal in your pack a seat but I dont ever think I will sell it. http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w183 ... der001.jpg

Bob, try the Dunlop 470K, its an audio taper.
I have had one in my Fender vol/tone pedal for just shy of 2 years now, with no sign of messing up.
I cant say the same for the PECs, I never had one last more than 9/10 months.
I think Tom Bradshaw has them or try tubesandmore.com .

I also use a Fender Volume Peda. I replaced the pot with one I purchased from Tom Bradshaw, and it works great.
