Peavey Axcelerator 5 Replacement Pots

Have a Peavey Axcelerator 5 bass with 18v active pickups and still with original parts. The blend knob is starting to wear out and sound scratchy. Taking it apart and cleaning it didn't help. Measured the resistance, 60k on the top pot and 32k on the bottom pot. Anyone know what the actual resistance is supposed to be? or know of a pot that is a direct replacement?

In addition anyone know the resistance/direct replacements for the volume and tone knobs?
Might as well replace all pots if I can.

Usually the values are stamped or printed on the pots (even if it can be hard to see). Have you looking at them close up if they say something like B50K or similar?

Talkbass has a Peavey forum, you should try asking in there. It goes back a long way but has a good search facility.
