Has anyone yet found a nice solution to having a dual concentric pot with nice knobs? Don't care if it'ssolder-lug or pc mount, just some good solution to this!

I'd love do have some nice dual concentric knobs...

Sigh. Yeah, if we got a bulk order together, we could pay as little as $20!

OK, how about with ANY knobs?

I have been looking for something like this for a few years now and have yet to find any that were cheap enough that I would buy them.

I have a few, but they were all salvaged from old electronics. To bad they are so expensive new.

I have pulled some from old CB radios but they have shafts and knobs that are way too tall. Not real useful in pedalbuilding with a set of knobs that stick 1.5" from the box! :icon_cry:

Sorry, somehow I overlooked the "nice knob" part. Most of the ones I listed were "knobless", but one of them did sell the knobs seperately.

My Danelectro 12string has concentric knobs. I really like that guitar but, let's face it, they didn't splurge on them so those knobs and pots had to cheap.

Thanks for the http://www.ampslab.com/accessories.htm link! Finally a 4-channel Dual Concentric Shaft  pot suitable for MT-2 style tone controls at affordable  price!
I was always wondering about the reason of the extremely ridiculous  prices on concentric pots because it doesn't seem space technologies to be involved. Maybe it's just the Demand-Supply law in action.

No prob! I never really paid attention to those kind of pots, but now I wish they weren't so expensive because they could be a real space saver. You could add a lot of extra controls to some of your boxes.
