That's a good point Cary. I have used the RS shack knobs before (replacing
an even cheaper PAiA knob set). You can break them when tightening (unlike
the MOTM knobs which are "Larry the mad torquer" proof). However, if you
are careful, you can get good service from the RS knobs.

Like you, I think the MOTM grade knobs are worth the extra bucks.
