1997 modulus flea bass treble pot.

I just got a 97 flea bass. The treble pot was replaced but its not a dent pot. When it's all the way up it sounds fazy like the treble is to high. Wondering if anyone knows what kind of pot to get for it.

It's more than likely a 50k linear pot with center detente like one on the bottom right of this page: http://basspartsresource.com/electrical_minipots.htm

However, the only way to know for sure is to open up the bass and confirm the proper value by looking at the bass control pot.

So if the bass pot says w50k is that the correct pot on the bottom right?
