I'm def. missing the winding section.


Looking at the picture, I think the winding is there. It looks to be bare wire, wire made of a more resistive material than copper. The wire looks like vertical stripes on the circular part the wiper is touching. The looks of this control looks consistent with what I'd expect of such a control at 3 ohms, with nothing missing.

However, this one looks to be missing the winding.
