[sdiy] Source for original Prophet 5 knobs ?

[Bob Weigel]

I didn't know if Wine country still had them.  Last time they told me 
they were saving the last few for their repairs a few years back but 
they had them remanufactured but at 12 bucks each.  Better than 15 I've 
seen them go for in places. -Bob
