Looking for somewhere to get my 414 fixed. Kids knocked the stand over
and broke off the pattern switch. Mic still works ok.

What country? In the US, I'd recommend AKG in Nashville.

Hope it hasn't sheared off one of the 1mm (?) screws into the chassis
casting. I had to get one drilled out and re-tapped by a watch-maker ! But
yes, the nearest AKG service centre is likely to have (or have access to)
the custom switches andscrews.

Just use a small screwdriver to move it like everyone else. Or send it
to Nashville. Or order the switch and put it in yerself.

Check the part number from the service docs available at :
http://www.akg.com/akg_structuretree...tegory,11.html

Ring AKG and ask for one.

If you're in the US, follow these simple steps:

1. Locate a telephone.
2. Call 615-620-3800
3. Ask for the Parts Department
4. Order the switch.

If you're outside the US, choose your country from the web site:

Follow the above steps, substituting for the telephone number in
Step 2.
