I was wondering if anyone may have seen a knob for sale in the style used on a shure SR-107.  There's a link to a photo of the unit for sale here:

These are D-shaft, but the shaft is recessed into the unit, and the knob face is thin and flat and has a bit of a flange to cover up the hole.  I'm not sure what the name of this style knob is, so I'm having some trouble locating a replacement.  Standard D-shaft knobs won't fit because of the recessed shaft.  I've sent an email out to Shure service as well in hopes that they may have some stocked.

I appreciate any help someone may be able to send my way!


OT Rant - I have this unit up for sale, and a guy stopped by yesterday to check it out.  He brakes this knob while doing some sweeps and then doesn't buy it.  Grrr.

I have some... unfortunately they are attached to the EQ, so I can't part with them. However, since I have one of these that stares me in the face, I'll keep an eye out for ya.
Give a man Fuzz, and he'll jam for a day... teach a man how to make a Fuzz and he'll never jam again!

Thanks, I appreciate it!

I got the word back from Shure that they do not sell any parts for the SR-107 any more...not surprisingly.  One hope that I do have is that we have stereo lithography printer here at work (a 3D plastic part printer).  A buddy of mine in the Mechanical Engineering department said he would make a rough model of the knob for me as a skunkworks project if I bring in one of the existing knobs off the box.  We'll add in a few of the knobs to a print batch with some spare space.  Cool stuff!
