oops...... something have problem with my post, didn't notice. (i was posting when the maintenance time, so wait for long to automatically post, but seems miss some portion)
SO i will add up here : The dual gang here is very expensive compare to price of 2 single gang pot (by alot, is it same over all places ?) do decide to make one if it is fun and convenient ! Here my idea, is to dissemble 2 single gang pot, then drill a hole and one of the pot's cover (which will be the front ones) Then do something (not yet think of) about the axis (shaft) of both of them, then connect them somehow X.x (off course at the same angle and position) so it become a DIY dual gang pot ? If you have any suggestion or comment, please do let me know. Last edited by guitar89; 28th September 2011 at 08:03 AM. |

Not really worth the effort if you simply want a dual gang pot. Now if you mean a dual concentric, where each can be individually rotated, then here's my DIY version for a distortion meter circa 1980's.
