Stacked concentric 250k pots

Recommended Posts

Project that I'm looking at is to build a P/J passive using a std P-bass plate with the jack in the plate (no need to drill through the edge into the rout).
Of course looking at old style P-bass deluxe wiring (3 x 250k pots) but with only 2 knob holes in plate and top rout big enough for 2 pots I need 2 of those 250k pots on the 1 plate hole.
So am looking for a stacked concentric 250k/250k pot. I want to use vintage style chrome knobs so am probably looking for 17/64" 6.75mm outer shaft with 3/16" 4.76mm inner shaft.

Anyone know where I can get one?
Seen 250k/500k & 500k/500k but NO 250k/250k

I did it by buying a pair of 250K/500K and two single 250K pots and peforming surgery. They work very well.

Hi
Allparts do one - any good? Their stuff is usually top quality, fit-for-purpose and these are pretty cheap [url="http://www.allparts.uk.com/online-shop/guitar-bass-parts/electronics/250k-pots/stacked-concentric-pot-250k250k-metric-p-4072.html"]http://www.allparts.uk.com/online-shop/guitar-bass-parts/electronics/250k-pots/stacked-concentric-pot-250k250k-metric-p-4072.html[/url]

Hope this helps
Andy

I've got one unused for exactly the same project once but just realised its 500k (which is what was on the PJ anyway and that worked nicely)
