A question for those that have built Weber amp kits or have purchased Weber parts: Are the solid-type potentiometer shafts the standard 1/4" diam? In other words have you successfully used standard non-Weber knobs on them?
The reason I ask is that I bought several pots from Weber along with several other parts to use in my own-design tube amp. I just received some chickenhead knobs that I purchased off e-bay and when I tried to install them, to my surprise, they would not fit. The shaft diameter was too big.
Just to be sure I tried the knobs on some Alpha and CTS pots that I had on hand and they fit fine, so the knobs are OK.
So I'm wondering if others have had this problem or did Weber happen to get a mis-marked lot (metric vs. english)?
I sent an email to Weber but have not yet received a response.
