I have a D-5 with a trashed pitchbend potentiometer - it literally fell apart when I removed it. The modulation sensor still works fine, so I don't want to go to the extreme of replacing the entire assembly (assuming it's even still available) unless absolutely necessary. It's a 16mm 100K pot and I assume it's linear given the application (?). What's throwing me is, it has four terminals - the three normal ones, plus one on the other side which I assume is a ground. I've looked at Jaycar and Dick Smith but they don't have any 4- terminal pots like this, and I'm concerned what they have would have too stiff an action for a pitchbender anyway. Any suggestions? Many thanks, Lindsay
