WTB: Mellotron Knobs

WTB: Mellotron Knobs

2014-02-18 by <samuelgskinner@gmail.com>

Hi there!,

I've got an M400 and i'm looking for the original style knobs for Vol/Tone/Pitch. I need a reasonably priced set of all three or at least the pitch and one smaller sized one. When I got my Mellotron it had three of the small regular sized knobs and since then two of them broke. (the grub screws are missing part of the head and can no longer be turned and the plastic is chipped where the screws are.)

Thanks for your help,

- Sam

Hello Sam

Many thanks for your email and enquiry. The original plastic knobs are no longer available BUT we have manufactured the same ones in black powder coated aluminium. They are expensive to produce but look great and we use them on our flagship M4000. The price for a set of Vol, Tone and Pitch would be GBP90 plus GBP10 postage.

My best
