By and large, knobs aren't cheap. Especially really cool knobs.

The only way to bring the per-unit price down is to buy a metric assload of them. And that takes a lot of upfront cash.

Where do you dudes get knobs if you just need like four of them? I'm not a builder, I just want to replace the shitty knobs on my Large Beaver with these:

They're nice, small, and rugged.

Maybe I could just give Tom a few bones extra when he ships me my UppeR and he can toss in some knobs.

Thanks Scruffz.

I was actually looking at that site yesterday and I totally forgot what it was called. Thanks for the memory jarg. They'd got a lot of nice ones. Might do some replacements on my other pedals as well.
