Yes I see what you mean on the ETF 9T1. The two outer knobs are wrong or the center brass disks have fallen out. Interesting story. I have two 9T1s that I bought from the same seller. They both have the correct knob sets. As the story goes a friend of the sellers father passed away and he was a hoarder. They found the two sets under his bed. They were a little pricey but they were complete front to back so I got them. They have both been restored and they do play extremely well. Thanks to everybody for looking. I think I will hold out for a set of knobs that look like the ones shown on the set in my photobucket. All red. They may be wrong but they look cool and that may be the best I can do.
