Pictures would help.

It would only cost about $5 to replace the pot if you can solder.

Trying to get that pot shaft back in correctly is an exercise in frustration and near futility.

Much, much easier to just drop in a new pot, unless, of course, it's some kind of super-weird moon-man impossible to find type pot. But I highly doubt a pot for a Squier Jazz falls under that category.

If you don't know how to solder, now's a great time to learn!
