Hello from the 303

[Thekev]

I’m Kevin from Denver, Colorado. I am a Heavy Equipment tech by day and a pro guitar player by night. I fell in love with home recording with the accessibility the digital audio workstation and that evolved into a love for the analog gear it’s all emulating. Because of the runaway prices on analog vintage gear I started assembling the kits that are for sale. I’ve built two 1176’s, an LA2A, two Pultec EPQ1’s, along with various guitar pedals and amplifiers. Currently building a 1073 neve mic pre and my “kit” is missing a couple components and I need help finding them. I need (or think I need?) the trimpot that is on board 283 in the RV-1 position. Anyone know where I can find one? It’s got five holes for the leads and that’s what’s throwing me off. Any help is most appreciated. Thanks!

It would help if you knew the resistance of the part, and its form factor.

Try diving into the web:
Digikey.com
Mouser.com

Welcome!

Yes, a schematic and some photos of your 1073 kit would be good. Questions like that will be answered best in "The Lab" subsection.

Cheers

[It’s got five holes for the leads] -- Either: A) Three holes for the potentiometer element and two holes for mounting/supporting legs, or B) Three holes for the potentiometer element and two holes for a switch. But, as others have suggested.....one needs a schematic in order to come up with a more conclusive answer!!!

That's my 2-cents worth here!!!
