The tuning knobs do not "Wobble".

There is a slight degree of eccentricity on mine -- but very slight.  I have 
confirmed that it is not the encoders or the shafts.  So it may be the 
tolerance on the shaft hole.

The only time it is observable at all is if you spin the knob -- but it isn't a 
big thing.  I hadn't even noticed it until someone commented about it on the 
list a while back.
