TC RH750 part II

That is insane. They must have changed who makes the plastic bits. My tc is well over a year old and done heaps of gigs/practices and it's all solid
Plus it's been dropped on concrete from shoulder height

They've definitely changed the design. The new ones grip on there really well. Seriously - if you're looking for replacement knobs, get TC to send a new set.

It gets worse. After I noticed the radial cracks in the buttons, I put the amp away in its TC case. Today I took the amp out to remove the aftermarket knobs in anticipation of receiving the new ones (it's been about a month and they're still not here), and noticed that the cracks now extend all the way across the buttons, and have grown even wider. I put a little super glue in the cracks with a toothpick to ****** the growth of the cracks if possible. Since I can't replace the buttons, I guess the amp is going to have to go back to TC. It's a good thing I saved the original box.
<edit> Now isn't that interesting. The ****** in the paragraph above is a verb that means "to make slow." I guess TB is now on "auto-PC."
Ultimately, it's going back. I'm just waiting for a response to my third communication with them.
Yeah, that is odd that they have it configured to always assume re-tard will always be used as insult... ironic that it's also specifically used in musical contexts as well.
Ritardando , with an" I "not an "E" . doesn't help Munji much though, the exploding knobs are a head-scratcher.
Just so there's no misunderstanding, TC has been responsive to my communications, and I am in the process of getting an RA number for it to get repaired. I have no complaints about their customer service, and I do like the amp other than the unfortunate situation with "bad prastic." I'm pretty sure they're going to take care of me.
I received the replacement knobs for my RH750 today. Took about two weeks to get them - not too bad, considering they told me they were out-of-stock and had to come from overseas. Unlike vin*tone's replacements, though, mine don't look any different than the originals. My replacement knobs look like the ones on the right from his picture.
OK, mine is on its way to New Yawk for repair of the memory buttons and replacement of the knobs.

Here's to hoping for a speedy repair. And, selfishly, I hope yours is a fairly isolated problem.
I got the new knobs today. Too bad my amp is in transit to NY. BTW, the new knobs look just like the old ones. They don't look to be the more robust ones that another poster received. I guess I'll have some spares when I get my amp back.
Just put my whole tc rig up in the amps for sale page. RH750 two rs 2x10 and one rs2x12 plus controller pedal . If anyone needs extra cabs nows the time. or a whole rig
I just heard from TC. My amp has been repaired and they're fixin' to ship it back to me. So far, I can't complain about their customer service.
My replacement knobs are coming soon. My old ones seem fine but it'll be good to see what these are like!
OK, my amp should be here by Friday. Assuming the repair to be good, I'm very satisfied with TC's customer service. John Setej has handled the situation professionally and promptly.
