Hey Tom,

I was trying to buy them from Vestax as a last resort.  I can't bring
myself to spend $45 for a crossfader simply because it comes with a tiny
little PCB on the bottom.  I'd rather spend $5 and buy a raw fader from
Mouser, Digikey etc and resolder it myself.

If I can't find a replacement, I'll go get raped by Vestax... I imagine a
trio of faders will cost over $100... almost as much as a new 2 channel
scratch mixer... too bad I'm so fond of this little chrome beauty.

Dave
