Actually, I cleaned the volume pot before replacing - had no effect. Something was really damaged inside - grooved contacts, I believe.
The new Alps pot transformed the sound - to what it should be.I noticed when installing new leads to the PCB, that the solder wants to lift off.
Wanted to have this preamp upside down on the bench today but my son's school called. He's sick and I had to bring him home and stay with him. Will postpone PV2 work til later.
