Peavey TL5 Pots wanted

[lonestar]

I have just acquired a late model 1990's one of these with a dodgy treble/bass pot.
It's a stacked concentric one and I've tried the usual jet air followed by switch cleaner thing but I think it needs replacing.
Anyone know the correct type and where I can source one? I might as well replace the mid/mid sweep one too I guess.
Peavey UK didn't want to know and were no help at all as the bass is "obsolete".
Any other info on these basses also greatly appreciated.

I've not seen one before but its otherwise really nice.

Try WD Music, correct ohm resistance (eg, 250k or 500k) should be stamped on your current pots somewhere.

I agree with "Buzz" about contacting WD Music. They are helpful and their posting is speedy. As far as a concentric pot, that can mean there is a battery run system in there so if thats the case, Status basses may also be able to help. I think on the following address........

Thanks for the help chaps. What a great resource this forum is.

I'm awaiting a response from Peavey US who have the parts but haven't told me how to buy them!
I'll try WD. had a look at Status. they have 10k and 100k but not 50k whick I think mine is. Doh!
