50k RA switched pot - where to get?

Post by pula58 »

A friend of mine wants his Deluxe reverb to have the ability to cut the trem circuit out of the wet signal path. So, I am trying to find a reverse audio taper 50K pot that has a "click-stop" at its lowest setting so as to break the connection.

Of course, its a Fender, so, 3/8" bushing, 1/4" shaft is necessary.

Anyone know where I can find one? I have searched my usual sources, to no avail...

Thanks!

If you can't find a pot with a rotary switch, what you could do is get this push-pull pot from AES/CED (available in 1M and 10K); then, since it's a CTS pot, you can dismantle it and replace the carbon track "wafer" with one from the 50K RA pot. The switch is pull to close, so you'd have to wire it so the trem is out of circuit when pushed in.
