[sdiy] Bourns CP Pots ( Series 90 )

So I'm working on this "Restore the poor abused Synthi VCS3[1]" project.
I'm trying to locate all the values of pots for it.  Going to splurge and
replace every pot in the unit with plastic pots, and figure I'll go with the
MOTM-style Series 90's since they are reasonably priced, however I'm having
a hard time finding one value.

1meg Audio taper seems to be hard to find.  I was pleasantly surprised to
find that at least Allied carried a decent selection of pots, but 1meg Audio
is one they're missing.  Also checked Digikey/Mouser with no luck.

Any suggestions for a source?

[1] By "Poor abused" I mean this synthi was removed from its original case,
mounted flat in something looking like a homemade DJ coffin, and then stored
near the bilge of an ocean-going vessel of some kind.  I will eventually put
pictures up because I doubt I can possibly believably describe how dangerous
looking the AC wiring was, I have definatly filed the memory away under
"interesting use of 22ga solid-core furnace wire".
