This is the master volume pot in a V3 rumble, and I suspect it needs replacement. I don't know what it's called, though, or how to get one. Anyone have any ideas?

R134 , 500k Audio pots. Fender control vertical snap in.

Why a replacement ? Look good, what is wrong with it ?
Need part number to order a new one ?

I can't find a new one

The pot is really scratchy, and it seems that contact cleaner isn't working for it. I guess a replacement is in order. I could somewhat make out a part number on the underside of it: RF R1660N

I tried googling that and I couldn't find anything. Would replacing a pot void our warranty on these things?

Maybe you could contact Fender's Customer Service, and they could help you, especially if you have a warranty?

1-A scratchy pot can be easily cleaned by a good contact cleaner. I use Deoxit. It is the best one, second good one is GC Electronics products.
Most contact cleaner on the shelf can't do the job.

2-You may know how to do the job.

IMO you don't follow 1 or /and 2
