    Changing Pots On My 1979 Tokai LS60

    Thanks everyone for the advice. I decided to keep the PCB board. I got 4 new ALPS pots. 2 B500k for volume and 2 A500K for tone just like the original Noble pots.

    Changing Pots On My 1979 Tokai LS60

    Hi everyone. Sadly 3 pots on my 1979 LS60 has spoilt. The shafts have loosen and couldn't be used anymore. The plastic disc inside the pots have disintegrated into tiny bits. It has the PCB board. The 3 faulty pots are 1 tone and 2 volume. I've removed the PCB board and found out that the 2 tone...
