I'm looking for a splined shaft knob (pot) to replace the power/treble one on my Eico. A friend is restoring it for me, and says it is broken. Won't power on/off correctly, and when on...if you move the treble control up a bit, power goes off, up a bit more, power comes on.
I wrote to Michael Percy, and this was his response:
Does anyone have one, or access to getting one? I was just going to use a surge protector, and power on and off with that, but this may be more of a problem.
I really like the way this fellow cleaned up his unit, but he does say he bought several "parts only" units to complete his finished one. That would be too expensive a route for me

Splined shaft pots are not so easily found. Suppliers tend not to stock them as the demand is much less, and the quantity you have to buy to stock them is high. I suggest your friend replace the knob so that he can use a smooth round shafted pot (such as our Noble AP25 250K).
