Re: FS: Custom Serge Panel

Hi Steve,

thanks for your hint! As far as I know the beautiful looking Davies
knobs you mention are used by several synth makers like Serge, Modcan
A, Wiard etc and they do actually fit on the larger shafts but not on
the (quite unusual, very thin!) 1/8" shafts. I think I will have to
google for the right ones.
