Dano Mini Pedal knobs

Bill (pwrose1) - 17 Sep 2005 20:26:59

Does anyone know a source for the little knobs used
on Danelectro mini-pedals like the Surf 'n Turf compressor,
or the Tuna Melt tremolo? The Pedal board I got has a few
missing knobs and I can't find any way to contact Danelectro.
AllParts and Musician's friend show nothing online partswise.
Thanx for any help or advice you may have.
Bill, the indentured Surf.

Bill:
you might just have to visit Radio Shack...and do a "custom
knob replacement" on those pedals...get the knobs with the
numbers on 'em...that would look way cool!

Thanx DP,
But the Dano Mini pedals use a unique knob design.
They are made so if you accidently kick one, it'll
pop out of a "+" shaped socket on the potentiometer,
so you can (hopefully) retrieve it and pop it back in.
Mine were lost in history, BUT a fellow lister has
a couple of dead Dano mini's and has contacted me.
Hopefully, I'll get my act together and have something
to contribute to the next SurfGuitar101 compilation!
Thanx again, mi amigos.
Bill, the indentured Surf.

Bill:
Wow...those Dano Pedals are more complex than I
supposed...I'm glad to hear that you found a solution,
though.
looking forward to the next comp,
