FMR RNP Gain Pot Repair
I idiotically managed to snap the gain knob off channel A on my RNP, does anyone know if this would be feasible to replace and could perhaps suggest a suitable part? I'd really like to get this fixed without it making the round trip to Austin and back!
Not sure what the part is either, but the gain control on the RNP is some kind of 12-position rotary switch (not sure how many poles) with a skinny shaft.
Agree that FMR is probably the best source--likely not an off-the-shelf part.

Giving them a call was definitely the way to go! Very helpful and will be sending the RNP off for repair (20$ repair, $10 for the part + shipping either way). Slow on the email but great company on the phone. Going to have to wait another week to send the RNP though, another preamp just died and I need a decent bass DI!

A larger company could have someone dedicated to dealing with email. That's not FMR. Everyone at hand is involved directly in production, testing, and shipping, and when possible, design. So while an email may languish in their inbox, when you phone they answer.
Think how many companies will have a bot answer email with a boilerplate reply, but not pick up the phone. <g>
