Does anyone happen to know the potentiometer value used in the
Rickenbacher "Frying Pan" electric steel guitar? Or a website that I
might be able to find this value?
My brother has one of these electric guitars (the first electric model
ever produced I'm told, though he has the 1946 edition - the earlier
ones did not have a volume control...)? His pot is noisy and also
has a broken knob, so I offered to install a new one.
I did not have a meter with me to measure it's resistance (which might
have been problematic anyway as it is very worn?), and it was not
marked, or at least not anything I could see. I am assuming it is a
linear taper pot, but I really don't know. It looks like a regular
1/4-inch single turn pot. Thanks! -mpm
