I've found exact replacements at Radio Shack in the past. It seems, though, that at least in my vicinity, the ones available have changed slightly, so they are no longer exact. But they're close. #274-415

By "inserts" you mean the spun aluminum disc, I imagine. I have not measured this, but the smaller ones (for the fifth knob) have smaller inserts than the stock fifth knob inserts. I'm gonna say, go to a store and measure 'em. Sorry I couldn't help more at this point!

...so is there a source for something more exact?

Aha! Search for Moog knobs, as mfd. by Cosmo.

Good talk!

Actually, can't find a seller for less than bulk. Anyone know where I can pick up eight or so?
