I thought my pots were bad, cause the knobs dragged so bad. They were just mashed too close to the body. I pulled em, and the post's turned fine. I just didn't push the knobs back all the way. Radio Shack contact cleaner fixed the sound, completrely:) Get a can of air, to, to blow off the excess.

Check out the video "Cleaning Your Electronics" - covers cleaning the pots, switch, and jack in half the time as this long-winded exercise.
