Title: Plastic tips, Drake MN-7 lever switches

Otherwise real nice 300W tuner is missing the little thingies on the end of the two lever switches.

Thanks to several members who got in touch privately with suggestions. Garey Barrell's hint, to check out Fender guitar switch tips at Antique Electronic Supply, inspired me to look there and elsewhere. A pair of Fender Strat black switch tips from Chicago Music Exchange cost all of $3.99 (free shipping!). They arrived today, I tried 'em, and they fit perfectly. And they're USA-made.

I doubt that they're an exact replacement for whatever Drake used, but they look good and didn't cost much. Fender PN is 0994939000.

Thanks to all who weighed in with tips on the tips.
