What's the situation on the aftermarket klicker knobs?

Not sure. He's the info to contact the guy that's making them. I just e-mailed him to see if and when they would be finished. I'll post back what he says.

anthony,you and whoever can keep bugging him.i'm the guy who approached him several months ago about making them up.there was a guy on another forum that started the project but decided it would'nt be profitable,according to him he would have to charge some ridiculous price{40bucks.i think,most of that from tooling}to make even a small profit.so,i saw this guy on ebay who made guitar knobs,sticks out of machined aluminum,the knobs came in a 2pak for 10.00.so i contacted him,and he said he thought he would do it.so i sent my side plate{the clicker side}along with a digital picture of the new clicker{thanks chainsaw42}from the other forum.so i'm waiting also.i'm beginning to wonder if it was worth the hassle to bother with it,i also sent him a reel clamp for him to examine and decide if he wants to tackle it.

With today's prices $40 for a small run of "parts" probably isn't too far out of line, but more than I'd spend for them.

Guys, he never returned my e-mail.

is the problem with the clicker is that it does not disengage, used my 4/02 1 time on a two day and its like the clicker knob just spins and does not go off or is it a differnent problem. would like to know...

jason,that line out clicker is designed to go briefly and disengage.we are just talking about a new knob thats easier{larger} to turn.if you want the option to turn the clicker on and off yourself,alan tani has a nice tutorial on performing that function.
