Hi everyone, I discovered that somewhere along my last move, the control switch on my pre-war National New Yorker lapsteel broke. I would love to replace it so if anyone has any info on where I might find one, please get in touch. It's the white deco looking pickup selector switch. Thanks a million for any help.

Are you looking for the arrow-shaped knob or something different? Photos of your instrument would be helpful. National New Yorkers had a few variations in design during their many years of manufacture.
The Notecannons website has a good overview of the variations.

If it's the "chicken head" knob you seek, try Antique Electronic Supply.
