A whole rank of 8 of them on the rear of a first year of production, 1983, Audiolab 8000A. I would normally just push needles each side of the split pins but as this is presumably potentially quite a valuable amp, even if blown up at the moment, any tips for more considered treatment. ? No broken pins just 1/4 century of corrosion and springy tiredness.

Another pointer ;-) to this amp being in the first 40 is the pots are splined but the knob recesses plain round, relying (or not in one case) on the splines forming enough graunched plastic to hold.
Duuno if you spotted this, but CPC in Preston have started stocking several makes of replacement pots including the Alps subminiature ones and the TT short splined shaft. There are also Bourns guitar pots with both long and short bush. You'll find them in the current 'Sounds and FX' brochure, next to last page.
