I have been looking at previous posts regarding swapping the 25K B pot out for for 100K B pot to increase swell time. I have a few questions.

1) Does the 'B' denote that the pot has a linear taper?
2) Have I correctly identified the Alpha pot at Mouser (313-1000F-100K)

3) Have any other Canadians out there ordered from Mouser?
What about shipping, customs, duties, etc?

Thanks for your assistance.

I've never ordered from Mouser but 'B' does mean linear. Your name had me laughing...let me know how the shipping/customs work out, I'm wondering the same thing.

That pot looks good. You can sometimes use the 25mm version, but there's not much difference in performance: it's just bigger. One other thing you might try is to socket the tantalum cap and try different values. I've tried up to 10uf and while it increases the swell time, I prefer the 'feel' of the original...

As for shipping to Canada, I don't know. I heard that Pedal Parts Plus has an issue (charged a lot or something).
