MB-6582 Feedback Knobs

[toneburst]

Can anyone tell my where to get the feedback knobs featured on the back of Wilba's original MA-6582?

... or suggest a good alternative.

I'm in the UK, so a European supplier would be preferable, but I can do international orders if I can get just 4 units, and postage is reasonable.

You need these :

I have just ordered the exact same pots so if you need any I can send/give you the remaining 5 free of charge. Have you built the control surface yet?

Sorry I misunderstood you. Good luck in finding those knobs!

I got mine here:

If you're unable to find them locally, I suppose I could get some next time I'm at that store and post them to you... but I really don't want to start a bulk order for them, sending four each to every MB-6582 builder. Postage would be cheap as I could pack them flat in an envelope... maybe only 2.20 AUD postage for four. I'll preemptively put a limit of one parcel per country. :D

Thanks for the kind offer. It's the knobs themselves I need though.

Hi Wilba.

I may take you up on that. Now I know what the knobs are though, I'll see if I can source them more locally, though.

no problem, just don't forget to nag.
