The extra weight is not a problem. I've been using them for years with no issues. They are wonderful.

Hi all,

I have just purchased a set of those all metal knobs for my K3...  I did
not really realize just how heavy they were...

The thought then occurred to me that the encoder shafts for both the
main and the sub tuning may not be able to take the additional weight...
Is this a valid worry?  If you are using these knobs, how long have you
had them on?

Does anyone know if the encoder bearings are metal or is it just a
plastic encoder shaft bearing?
