Ive got a late 90's fender amp that has a bad pot for the clean channel volume. I can see the back is all cracked. Its stuck at one volume. I assume that the traces are on the back and are broken with the cracked back. The problem is that the pot is a square one that is soldered to the board and not attached to the metal face of the amp at all. It seems that it would be a real pain to get it off the board as I would have to remove the circuit board from the chassis. And Ive never seen a pot like this either, probably hard to come by. Im thinking of just breaking the old pot open to get at the 3 leads. Then soldering wires to them. Then getting a guitar pot and mounting it to the hole in the chassis. And then soldering the 3 wires to the pot. Sound like a plan? Any idea what the value of that pot would be? Audio or linear taper? Its a solid state fender princeton 65. Volume pot for the clean channel.
