Also need the footswitch!

Hi, Mark,
It was made approx May 22, 1971 plus or minus about 3 weeks.
What color is it?
You can get knobs at Radio Shack - they are a little bigger though. For more info see below, also search this site for "knobs" - there has a been a few postings on the subject.

The stock Kustom knob that is used on plexi’s is 0.78" diameter x 0.56" high with 1.0" diameter skirt. Shaft is 1/4”. Replacement used knobs are sometimes available on ebay.
2) Cosmo # 7602 knobs
The Cosmo 7602 knob is very close to the stock Kustom knob.

Shaft is 1/4".

Correction needed here--the Rickenbacker knobs have words on them- "volume, tone" that sort of thing, and it's a B**ch to get it off...
