trying to figure out a type and source for these components.

Not an alpha pot but

 
I like to use Wima pots in my pedals. I don't really know why! I do prefer to use Nichicon electrolytics simply because they are supposed to last longer. Although I've been buying a lot of SMD electrolytics from Mouser lately because they're so compact.

I suspect the main reason I like Wima is because those grey box caps are ugly. I'm perfectly happy with the yellow ones or the blue ones. The only blue ones I have are 27nF, strangely enough.
