Mighty mite Haz clone

I recently purchased a hazlab clone Electronics board to go into a bass. Has anyone had experience with them or has one especially and could tell me what potentiometer goes for the bass and treble or the configuration of such. I can't find much information or schematics of them any help would be absolutely greatly appreciated.
Thank you!!

The stock ones in mine were 100k linear with center detent. I've been looking for replacements with a long enough bushing to mount through the body for about two years lol, it's an old Cort with the same haz style preamp.
I had actually forgotten about it, I think I'll just get some normal ones and get creative with JB weld now

Edit: have you already searched "haz preamp" here in the forums? Hopefully you should be able to find a schematic, I remember there were some very knowledgeable users around here. And I also vaguely remember a website with various versions of this preamp

Unfortunately I thought I was buying a Mighty 114 but this is a different type. I don't think it's going to give me the same sound as a hazlab

Or maybe this clever solution would work for you: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] ?

Well with the longest pot bushing I found I'd still be missing about 5mm, is that long enough? And will it make the rotating shaft longer too?
I was thinking of using "thread repair inserts" and a standard nut on top, so that's a similar idea, but still I need to make the shaft longer with another piece and JB weld. Or find a very long shaft pot (25mm) and a long insert if I can.
I solved the volume pot with one of those Gibson 500k long ones.

By the way here's what I found in the bass when I got it, can't find anything like it

And here's one of the original broken pots for measure

The maker is on TB, I'll ping him right now: @bowthing

I've used epoxy on lamp thread from the hardware store, but yeah, shaft length can easily be a deal breaker. If you can find a few other people needing the same part Omeg in the UK can make custom pots for you with 12mm long threaded bushings as a stock option, but they may be able to go longer as well. Minimum order quantity was only 10 units the last time I used them, and quoted turnaround time was right at one month, which they met.
