AD30HTC knobs falling off
Ummm, so after taking my amp to a tech, some of the knobs are loose and falling off. Any tips on getting them on nice and tight again?

Re: AD30HTC knobs falling off
If the pots are split-shaft, you can CAREFULLY widen the gap back to spec to allow the splines to hold the knobs more securely. If your knobs have set-screws, I guess you would have figured out how to tighten them already

Re: AD30HTC knobs falling off
One definitive solution without permanent sticking would be to take the mini screws out of the knobs, put some Loctite on them and screw them back in tightly. Then they shouldn't be jiggled loose by vibrations, but will still come loose again with a screwdriver.
