[AMRadio] Knobs

Sat Mar 3 14:29:11 EST 2007

Just for the record, the fan-shaped knobs mentioned below are not
fan-shaped, but apparently circular, or cone-shaped.

Centralab used to make a flat, fan-shaped knob for their lever switches.  I
don't know if they are still available, or in what colors.  They, and the
oval-shaped knobs were readily available in red, white and black.

Mouser Part No. 690-5149A  black, oval
Mouser Part No. 690-SSKW  white, fan shaped
Mouser Part No. 690-SSKB  black, fan shaped

I didn't realize they still had the fan shaped knobs also.  My catalog is a
bit old, hope they still stock them.   Antique Electronics Supply carries
many Fender parts, they may have them also.

Thanks, Bill.  I'll go over there and check it out.  I was in vintage
mode and didn't even think they might still be around.  I had another
gent remind me they are used on the Fender Tele.  I kept thinking I had
seen some around here some where and I had, but they're on my Tele!
Sometimes I can't see the forest for the trees.

Thanks a million.
