Anyone know what the replacement pots would be for a '70s MSA? Also where I could get them. I've got 4 on mine. Guitar Vol & Tone, and Fuzztone Gain & Tone. Are they all the same?

For the guitar, you definitely want a 500k audio taper volume pot, and a 250k linear tone pot. I'm not sure about the values of the two pots for the distortion unit, but I'm certain 100k pots will suffice there.

Have you pulled the pots? Often the value is stamped on the pot. If the value isn't on the parts, googling the manufacturer and the part number should work. If you have a VOM, you can measure them, unless they're toast.
