$485 wooden volume knob

Dynamics are better and overall naturalness is improved. Here is a test for all you Silver Rock owners. Try removing the bakelite knobs and listen. You will be shocked by this! The signature knobs will have an even greater effect…really amazing! The point here is the micro vibrations created by the volume pots and knobs find their way into the delicate signal path and cause degradation (Bad vibrations equal bad sound). With the signature knobs micro vibrations from the C37 concept of wood, bronze and the lacquer itself compensate for the volume pots and provide (Good Vibrations) our ear/brain combination like to hear…way better sound!!

Taking the piss...?

These ones are a lot cheaper, wonder if they share the same magic mojo.

My favourite knobs are the 70s fender style ones

never seen them on pedals, but they would look awesome!

These are knobs from the Ibanez FL-305 Flanger I just repaired. Has anyone seen these before? I'd love to get some.
