Does anyone know the nut size for the Fender branded mini pots? Fender part# 0054458000 is the pot in question. I received one of these with some other parts to upgrade my Squier VMJM, and the nut included with this particular pot is stripped out/machined incorrectly. It almost looks like someone took a dremel to it but it was new in the package. I'm going to the take the mini pot and the other mini pot's nut to the hardware store to try to find a match, but if anyone knows the size that will make things a lot easier. I believe the thread density is 32 like the normal sized Fender pots.

I'll throw in 1/4-32 (UNS), but that's based on a vague memory only...
You could confirm or deny it, in case someone else meets those stripped nuts.

I believe the 1/4" diameter is correct. I made it to the hardware store today and it seems to match up with the other 1/4 nuts. Unfortunately it is rather hard to find a 1/4-32 nut as most of them are 1/4-20. Looks like I'll be ordering a couple more pots just to be safe and have an extra on hand. Thanks for the reply.
