I bought this amp used from somebody who didn't know how amazing it was and a couple of the pots are clean knocked off. They're the push/pull kind, and I'm having a lot of difficulty finding the parts.

I know that not all pots are the same and so these are the ones I need;
-Mid push/pull (clean channel)
-Mid push/pull (Distortion)
-Bass push/pull (distortion)

Also If i wanted to get custom knobs made, how would i go about doing that?
I want Red knobs with the white pointers, but in the style of the Fender Vintage round knobs. (Fender obviously doesn't make these lol)

Thank you so much!

Can't really help you on the pots cause I myself am not sure about those, other than I have them on mine too and hope I never need to replace them.As far as knobs.....I have never seen those in red knobs.
Here is some in black on a twin head with a cabImageImage
I think you would definitely have to get those custom made
I've also seen the knobs it comes with in black like this.

That might be tough, I think they only made the red knobs one year, or maybe a couple years, then went to the black knobs. You probably should contact Fender and ask them. I have the red knobs too. Maybe it will be worth big money some day as a collector's item LOL.
