I reknobbed my Ct5 (rainbow'd), Pretty Years (bottom 6 knobs are 2x pink, 2x clear, 2x white, so the pink knobs are over the white triangle and the white knobs are over the pink triangle), my Supermoon Chrome (nice clear knobs that look great w the chrome), and my Jag. Still have a ton left over for future reknobbing.
Dude - pics of those reknobbed pedals!!!

:wha?: you don't say?? Well then, looks like I might be doing just that! You can take them apart easily, yeah?

Big Boss style knobs are the shit :thumb:

These were a great find and fit my VI so well


Still looking for cream witch hats that will fit a JMJM and not cost 35€ like the Fender pure vintage ones if any of you has a supplier in mind :snax:
Good deals: OsbornKT, Phantasmagorovich, UglyCasanova, DarkAxel, Skip, D.o.S, ColdBrightSunlight, Eivind August, Goroth

Anyone know the diameter for the knobs on a Rickenbacker 4003? I wanna re-knob my main live bass (thinking some kind of chrome or clear knobs that will look cool with the mirror pickguard). They also need set-screws. Open to suggestion! This has been on my mind for a while.

They look like your standard Moog style knobs with labeled controls to me (probably 1" diameter at the base, I don't know the internal diameter).
Pretty much any normal set-screw knob that they sell on pedal parts/guitar parts sites should work.

The cafeteria at my work has some bitchin-looking knobs on their food-warmers, but I think they're of a type that wouldn't fit on any standard guitar pot, sadly.

This knob right here. I'm in love with it, but it only fits on a D-shaped shaft.
This is a very impressive collection of Roto Toms. That's 21 Roto Toms in all. That is only $33.00 a Roto Tom.

I found some knobs I couldn't find anywhere else on DigiKey

It looks a lot like Mouser and Allied... maybe they're all the same company.

We have a thread for knob RESOURCES and probably Knobs demos but not KNOBS, until now. Here's that earlier thread:

viewtopic.php?f=149&t=61501&p=1341755

Never ordered from digikey but now I want to so that Thief River Falls (what a name), MN will continue to exist.
