I bought a push/pull potentiometer off EBay and disassembled my broken Vib / Tremelo pot from my 50-2 amp and installed the parts from the new pot into the old pot body ( the 3 solder terminals on the new one did not line up with the board holes ) and re-soldered it back to the board...cleaned all pots and installed 3 prong cord...cut shaft of new pot ( to long) ...installed temporary knob with screw until I find one that looks like Kustom knob(screw clamp knob) ....Works great...
Reverb seems to be not deep enough though... Any thoughts....Cleaned RCA JACKS....REVERB echos when amp is moved a little...
