The only off-the-shelf parts are the potentiometers, the Molex connector,

and the wires between them. The levers themselves are custom parts, as are

the springs and the frame everything mounts in. If you take the assembly out

(five screws are on the underside of the instrument), you should be able to

see what's wrong. It could be a loose setscrew on the bushing that attaches

the lever to the pot shaft. Or, it could be a loose pot. Unless something is

actually broken, it should be fairly easy to tighten up.
