Long Shaft pots

fenderguy79
Does anyone have a good source for long shaft dual pots?
The one is for an really old boss volume and needs to be at least 1.5" (B20k)
The other is a Roland/Boss FV-50l and needs to be 1" (B20k)

Thanks!
Will

Sorry , no one answered you, I just assumed they did. One thing you can try is to google "wah" pots - because they tend to have really long shafts, and they are also usually low ohmage (I think usually 10k, but worth a try - you can make them 20k)

Or there is just this: https://www.google.com/search?q=wah+pots&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0CEcQsARqFQoTCLHJruHZgccCFdI0iAodZi8AjQ&biw=1920&bih=952#tbm=isch&q=long+shaft+20k+potentiometer

Bourns makes a 25k pot with a 1 inch shaft including the knurl...17mm or 24mm.

Panasonic has some 30 and 35mm long shaft pots at digikey

EVU-F2LFL3B24  read the pdf for this one there are lots of options in the series.

I went to digikey then clicked on potentiometers, then hit the 20k resistance and filtered out all of those.  It's the first on the list of many

They also have a filter for 30mm and 50mm!!

here's the link to a POT 20K OHM 2W WIREWOUND LINEAR with 50mm shaft
