Default Anyone replace pots with presets ?

I'm coming round to thinking that as these pots are easily openable and
there is no wear at all on the tracks, then clean out all the lubricant
with
meths or something, coat the wiper with something to stiffen it up a bit
and
re-assemble, with no lubricant at all, maybe just "dry lubricant" of fine
graphite powder laid in the track area instead.


Ah ! Same post appeared ( accidentally I guess ) in your "speaker power"
thread, so I say the same here -

There ya go then !

I also agree with Ron in respect of subbing parts in musos' gear. Looking
for trouble with some of them ...
