54 Key Slider Knobs

[Ben Gutt]

I just bought my second Rhodes.  This one is a 1980 54 key.  

It is missing the knobs on the volume and tone slider pots.  I'm having a hard time finding knobs that will fit being that the slider pots were not used as widely.  

Does anybody have any ideas?

They are a tough find.  My only idea would be stereos from the mid 80s that would have slider knobs like that.  I know someone used an apple cable-end protector for their Clav volume knob, but they're probably too long to fit 2 like your 54 needs.

try a telecaster switch tip...not the same, but works

Haven't tried these, but they look legit.
