I want to Build the Cobalt Drive but cant find a A250K Dual Pot

[bzdunowski]

Can someone please help me. I want to build this Cobalt Drive so bad but I cant find a A250K dual PCB mount pot. How are you guys building these Boss clones as they all seem to have a dual pot that I cant find

Also can sub an A100K with a couple other substitutions. See https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/this-week-on-the-breadboard-blues-driver-bd-2-bd-2w-part-4.7544/

I wouldn't sub something lower, I would go higher. Then, if the results aren't awesome, drop a matching resistor in there. A 500k pot on a drive means more better, right?
