Stingray Push Push Mod Complete; Knob Height Question

[Jim Jim Jeree]

I just finished adding two push / push pots to my Stingray II for individual series / parallel switching. Will post another thread with more detail when I have time.

The knobs require quite a bit of space over the mounting hardware to enable activation, and wobble a bit when engaged. Is there a trick to getting them any lower that I am missing or does this look right?

Looks like a clean install overall! A bit of height and slight wobble with push/push pots is pretty normal since the mechanism sits taller than standard pots. You can try using thinner nuts/washers or slightly countersinking the hole (if the body allows) to lower them a touch. For the wobble, make sure everything is tightened well and consider adding a star washer to help stabilize. If it feels solid in use, you’re probably good to go
