Replacement pot for vintage Fender Mustang.

In need of some advice regarding a replacement volume pot on a late ’70s Mustang bass:

Last night, the pot got stuck and this morning, in attempting to clean the insides, one of the two shaft prongs snapped off.

Presuming a replacement pot is the best bet at this point? And if so, which would be the best option from Invalid Link Removed? Guessing the ‘Pure Vintage 250K Split Shaft’, but wanted to be sure...

Thanks in advance for any advice!
 
I’m guessing any 250 would work. The CTS ones seem popular, smaller and match the stuff in my Fenders. Amazon has plenty of them. Many sources on the net. Don’t Do like me and buy three sets before you figure out which ones are the right ones.
Many more knowledgeable here on TB than me.
