I'm looking at getting a few pots made by Precision Electronics Components (actually under the NTE name), because they're supposed to sound great and are a good compromise between the standard cheap stuff and something like Alps, $7-10 each.
They're for my guitar amplifier. I also want them because they would be wired to the PCB rather than directly soldered in, which will make it *much* easier to remove the PCB, and will stop stressing the tube ribbon cables so much when I do.
The only model I can actually find for sale that would fit in my amp has an 1/8" solid, slotted shaft. Problem is, the usual guitar amp chicken head knobs are only made for 1/4" flatted shafts (as far as I can tell).
If I have to use a different kind of knob, it's not the end of the world, in the end it's a minor priority. But I'm wondering if such a thing exists that would adapt the 1/8" knob to 1/4", some kind of sleeve or something. Or if there's some relatively simply way to make a chicken head knob work on an 1/8" shaft, but still be removeable (no glue ;) ). |
