Anyone know how to remove the 6mm sleeve from Sadowsky chrome knobs so they fit normal Sadowsky 1/4" posts?
I replaced a Nordy pre in my newly acquired Ultra Vintage PJ5. It appears the knobs have a brass sleeve in them (Nordy pre has smaller posts). I may have pushed the sleeve deeper before I realized what was going on.

I haven't done this, so....
What I would try is to get a 7/32 drill bit, chuck it up on the drill, then set the drill for reverse. Grab the knob with some smooth or padded channel locks, and then turning the drill motor slowly try to engage the sleeve and back it out. FWIW, just tossing out what I would try.

Thanks for the tip.
I also found these. Look to be a match. If all else fails I'll sell my current ones with the Nordy pre and buy these...

Couple of shots of my Sadowsky in Action.
Damn. I was gonna post a Sadowsky action shot of me at a local dive bar, but never mind.
maybe I'll just wait a page or three.

LOL.
Sadowsky basses love dive bars though!! 
Dive Bar gigs are the bread and butter of a working bassist. (Shhh....that's a dirty secret of the music business though)
I suspect I would have to go for hernia repair, if I tried a pose like that.Damn. I was gonna post a Sadowsky action shot of me at a local dive bar, but never mind.

That you guys for making me laugh! My Mesa Titan V12 just failed on me for the second time in two months, despite being repaired last month for 320 bucks.
I'll wash my hads off that amp.

I like dive bars and all, but I was just thinking, man my last 2 stages didn't look anything like these. Rats. 
Well that's not good!! What are you thinking of switching to?
I've been using TC Electonic stuff (Have a couple of set ups) or my cherished Eden WT800.
Going back to an Ampeg SVT 4 Pro. That thing only failed on me once. And it was just a soldering issue.
Yeah, the Ampeg SVT 4 Pro is a tried true work horse. Do you still have the DB750 you have listed in you sig? How do you like that? I've though about getting one.

Well that's settled... if you aren't going to do it, I will! Metro RV5 PJ5 in Dive Bar glory!!
