(www.potentiometers.com) who say they'll make all kinds of special pots to
order within hours, but I'd only need 20 pcs or so, so I don't know about
the price as they clearly don't stock any centre tapped types... Any

Me too!  I'd love to find some center-tapped linear pots that also have 
mechanical center detent.  Preferably in 50K or 100K values.  These would be great 
for +/- modulation amount controls.  The center tap would allow you to get a 
true zero point in the center.
