Any sources for Dumble-style knobs?

Post by ValvElectric »

Hey all,
I've scoured the internet for a couple hours trying to find knobs similar to the silver skirted knobs featured on various Dumbles and clones with no luck.
Anyone have a good source?
Thanks

Alco clone knob

I've turned folks onto these, you have to cull maybe 1 or 2 out of 10, but otherwise a good value or you can pay $7 a knob from Mouser for the real ALCO knob.

Thanks for the tip. I usually try to avoid oversees eBay sellers, but if others can vouch for them I might just have to give these a try.
