Rubber knob covers

Let's see who can't resist the thread title...

Anyway, I like a bit of on-the-fly foot-based knob twiddling and I got some MXR knob covers hoping that they'd be a good fit on a Strymon pedal. I had to put a couple of wraps of tape around the 'mix' knob for it to become a nice push fit...sorted.

Next up is a Diamond Memory Lane Jr...but it's got smaller knobs...does anyone know of a source for smaller knob covers?

1. I use the supplied MXR knob cover on the Speed control of my Phase 100.
2. I replaced all the knobs on my Maxon AD999 with the largest matching (MXR-type) knobs that would fit, then put a black rubber band from a 'Smok' vaping kit over the Delay Time knob.
3. I have acquired similar short/wide black rubber bands that fit over the Blend and Delay controls of my DMM 1100-TT.

The rubber provides extra friction to the toe of my shoe. All the rubber-clad knobs are on the extreme left or right of the pedal for easy toe access.

I got quite adept at this but it was easier in a pair of Adidas than Doc Martens...the MXR rubber makes it a lot 'safer'.

Good idea with the rubber bands...much tidier.

Guess I may have to change a couple of knobs to full size ones where possible.

You could also try O-rings

I use these on the volume knobs of my '58 RI Les Paul, as otherwise it is pretty hard to adjust them on the fly.

This didn't get enough laughs the first time around...let's try again!

Does anyone know where I can get Dunlop ECB141 knob covers?
This is the smaller variety...should be 0.75" diameter.
I'm out of Google-fu unless I fancy importing a couple for crazy money.

I'm not surprised if you're using your feet.

I still use the ones with the bit on the end you can stand on to pull it off with.
