Hi Jason:


That's a timely question.  I recently tracked down the original
manufacturer of the knobs, who sold the product line to a company in Ohio,
who will still make them on a semi-custom basis.  Moog used 3 types of
knobs, a 1" skirted knob, a 1-1/4" skirted knob, and a pointer knob.  They
were used on the 900 series modular systems, the Minimoog, and possibly
other products.   I would like to make an order for these, but I need to
order a minimum of 100 pieces of each of the three.  I can eventually use
up most of the 1" knobs myself, but I only need a handful of the 1-1/4" and
the pointer knobs.  Is anyone interested in buying some of these knobs from
me so I don't end up with a huge inventory?  It's looking like they will be
in the $2.00 to $3.00 range each.  I would invite anyone interested in
these knobs to email me with the type and quantity you want, If I get a
reasonable number of requests, I will order all three types.  The knobs are
identical to those originally used by Moog.
