So I have a pile of Boss pedals that need little things. Some pots, LED, jack, etc.. Whats the best place to order components from? For instance, I have a OC-2 that needs 3 of these alpha 100k pc pin type pots:



I tried my local radio shack. They are lacking in good stuff.

Hi primrib

A lot of the members are contacting Roland-Boss in their respective countries & states.
They typically have a min postage or charge, so it's worth ordering a few parts at once.

We have a sticky thread on this subject over here in the FAQ's:
http://www.bossarea.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4705

Those exacts 9mm square (18 tooth spline shaft) pots are available over the counter at Jaycar in Australia.
I belive they were thinking of setting up stores in the USA as well.
I'll ask for you next time I'm in there.

The other place I suggest you might contact is SmallBear Electronics in the list.

Regards Dr. Bob
