Knobs....again.....RCA

[Lindell]

I can´t find any of thesehttp://www.leedselect.com/images-knobs/RCA_consoleknobs.JPG knobs on the net. They are RCA console knobs. Same as on the Groove Tubes Vipre & Glory Comp.

Where can I get them???? :?
Leeds Select is out of stock..... (of original RCA knobs)

Grooves Tubes sells them, but they are expensive.

Hey Dave,

Are those knobs and Collins type knobs Bakelite? Is there anything one does to preserve them? I got some at my favorite junk yard yesterday and they're fine but a bit grayish.

Thanks

By the way. I think some of us have knob questions.

Is there any meta ? If not , Jakob (?), what do you think about a knob meter with links for the sources and styles and e.g. that SSL uses SIFAM knobs etc etc ??

cheers

You can polish Bakelite. Try some rubbing compound and then some wax.

You might have to re-paint the indicator lines after you do. No big deal...

Hi Jürgen,

Sorry - I wasn't paying attention to this thread..

Yes - a Meta bout knobs, meters, lights, boxes and all such "cosmetic" parts would be a great idea!

Just go ahead and start it - I'm sure we all have links to contribute..
