Here's the links to the switches in question:

Maybe you could let me know if one of these switches would work but maybe see if they would cross with a switch similar to one that's on Mouser or Digikey that's got the half-moon shaped shaft on it.
Also someone on Audio Karma does has a tuner/preamp unit like the one I'm currently working on that they said I could have parts from and they also I guess have a spare record player like the one I'm working on that I could have parts off of as well, and I sent them a private message but I haven't heard back from them yet so crossing my fingers that they pull through so that I can maybe get the parts that I need without having to start from scratch. |
I wouldn't worry about returning that unit to it's former glory! According to the pictures, the amplifier was a mouse-house before.
You'll find out that, anything that wasn't stored in ideal conditions are going to require a lot more work to repair.
