RE: EDP woes II

["Michael Plishka" <mike@michaelplishka.com>]

I did open the box Bob and had a tough time getting one screw out so I
couldn't totally undo it.  I have a gig tonight (sans EDP but maybe with a
Rang) but tomorrow I'll try and get closer to it to see what it looks like.
If it is cracked, do you have nay idea what the replacement is?

Thanks!

Hmm.  Might have taken a hit and you have a cracked poteniometer board.
I could open one and see how they are built.  I can't recall.  But
likely it's a pc mount pot where either the solder is broken or the
whole bakelite piece or whatever the potentiometer's resistive material
is layed on inside is cracked. -Bob
