OB-8 Potentiometers

2005-02-14 by zendenker

Greetings all,

I'm an OB-8 owner that suffers from a few scratchy/glitchy pots.
Not a huge problem, but it does prevent me from recording smooth
manual sweeps. I'm wondering, has anyone here replaced these, and
where I might find fitting substitutes. The schematics on the web
say most pots are lin 50k, not sure which brand would work with the
pcb though.

Thanks.

(please excuse any cross-posts)
