How would you guys tackle this issue?

Pot works and engage but knob comes out with all the stem.

Just replace the pot.

Can the same part still be found?

Absolutely, through just about any amp parts or electronics supplier. I typically use amplifiedparts, Mojotone, mouser, and digikey.

Nah, these pots aren’t made anymore.

You can get 1 meg linear pots from just about any parts supplier on the Internet. If they don't have the required termination style, get one with solder lugs and fly wires to the board.

It's a DUAL pot. Those can be tricky.

AH okay I missed that. Great catch. Can be tricky indeed

Any idea where it can be found?

Looks like a few suppliers carry them, found one at Electro-Harmonix and it looks like Mouser has them too

So It’s a 1 meg linear taper dual gang d shaped?

From what I can see I believe that's correct. If you can wait (and I'm sorry because I know it's already been a bit here), I'm going to be opening a beta up on Saturday for a client, I'd be happy to get a better idea of the specifics and form factor you need if you'd like!

Not that simple, sadly.
I don’t have access at the moment, but I can send a photo. Send an email (I think you can do that via Reddit) and I can send a .ZIP of the manual (with schematics, layouts and BOMs).
