hiya all, i’m searching for a knob for a Maestro MP-1 Phaser from the 70’s.
It was designed by Bob…quite rare I think…any help would be greatly appreciated its a fine piece of vintage/moog history.
It must be an epidemic with those…my buddy has one that also was missing a knob. He ended up replacing it with a bakelite number he found at a flea market. Totally not original equipment, but it still looks cool. And Kevin, I don’t see why Bob wouldn’t put a control called Balls on there. His own phaser can be set to Stun and Kill. He obviously had a sense of humor.
Anyone that spent some time with Bob would know he often used colorful language.
“Balls” and “Moogfooger” were names he choose to use.
But he never went the length that Metasonix has in naming his products.
There’s a difference between a cute name and childish bathroom humor.
