Brand new OP-1 misaligned top row

Received a new, sealed unit from Amazon today and the squarish enclosures of the knobs are rather misaligned. Is this acceptable?

the white dial looks really tight to the top, is there any friction? If it turns smoothly I personally wouldn’t bother returning it.

No friction but the blue knob rotates slightly snappier. :roll_eyes:

That is the case one more units

Oh I wouldn’t bother! Same on my unit and it plays like a dream.

It’s same on mine too! Don’t worry about it, just start playing and you will love every minute you spend using it!

That’s within tolerances, in my experience.

Quick update: Meanwhile Amazon has sent me replacement unit which had marks of use all over the place. Returned it for another one and finally received a perfect OP. Not sure what’s going on but perhaps TE is selling refurb units? This was for amazon.de with Amazon being the seller. No FBA stuff.

Do you have a photo of the marks?
