Hello all!
I recently acquired a Sanyo M-4500 (AKA M-9978 / Siemens Club RM-745), in overall good condition but the volume potentiometer is busted and I need a replacement. I've been looking around all week but can't fine one, not even a "close enough". I'm betting this potentiometer can be found in many Sanyo M-99xx models like the m9994, m9977, m9975, etc. There must be some spares somewhere. The rear pins/legs on mine have completely broken off, I cant see how this can be repaired.
It has a concentric shaft, dual gang, 20K ohm with a center tap. The shaft is 25mm long (0.98 inch), total length is 44mm (1.7 inch) and shaft diameter of 5.8mm (0.22 inch).
If you have one spare or know where I can get one, I've love to hear from you. I'm in Australia and will pay for shipping from anywhere. Thanks.

I know its pain. Find a coaxial pot is difficult, Find a stereo coaxial control pot with 1/3 tap pin is more difficult.
The only way I can figure is looking for a vintage donor cassette deck. i.e. AKAI CS-F11. Good luck.
