The particular pot had B500k stamped on it (my guitar has three volume knobs [B500k] and one master tone knob [A500k]). Where can I get a replacement pot that will fit with the knobs without adjustments? I can solder no problem, but I just don't want to buy something that requires a larger hole, or a different knob. I saw Full Sized 500K Audio Pot- Alpha Brand at guitarfetish, and Standard Control Pots at Stewmac. Would those work?

Thanks!
The Alpha for sure I think the stew macs will as well ;never used them.
