To the best of my knowledge, the Tribbie G&Ls did NOT
get CTS pots, but rather featured Alpha's. You could
verify this on the GLDP (linked below), but a standard
250k CTS should work fine as a replacement.

I have also linked as much documentation for the
L-2000 as I could find. Be aware that this all relates
to the USA made G&Ls, not the Korean built Tribbies.
Recently, I learned that G&L was also having
instruments made in Japan for the Japanese domestic
market. They (the Japanese) are also getting Tribute
Series instruments made in Indonesia, but I have yet
to see an Indonesian G&L Tribute here in the US.

I hope these help you out.
