Wanted: your old Allen Bradley pots

[jonshack]

Has any one got scratchy old Allen Bradley J type potentiometers lying around? Maybe you replaced one in your VP and didn't throw the scratchy one away? Maybe you upgraded to a digital volume pedal? I'm hoping to revive mine by harvesting parts from used ones, preferably the older ones pre- 'Made in Mexico' but anything including Clarostat considered.

I'd also be interested in any linear taper AB pots you may have purchased mistakenly, I think the code normally ends in A instead of AA on these. The carbon wiper brushes should be transferable.

I will pay reasonable money for these parts.

Thanks,
Jonathan

A small tip. The carbon brushes from some Remington electric razors will fit a Type J Allen Bradley pot.

Interesting! I'll look into that. Thanks Ken.

I've sent you an email Alan.
