Bongo Chrome Control Knobs

[tegzsa]

Anyone know of a supplier making chrome knobs to suit the Bongo?

Any chance of a factory set coming out?

I like black...having a hard time picturing chrome knobs on a Bongo without wincing.

That'd be cool imo, but I think they'd have to be a bit longer than most knobs out there cuz the originals are that way. Also, the stacked knobs' sizing are also pretty different from what's available out there.

The factory knobs are made out of what, aluminum? Is it possible to chrome plate aluminum? If so, most big cities will have a place that will do chrome plating.

it would definitely be different. And there is nothing wrong with different.

I'd have to see it. Not opposed, mind you, but I just can't picture it.

I guess if I were REALLY motivated, I could Photoshop it......or someone could.

Crome knobs, I can almost picture it and I'm not sure I like it. For some reason I keep seeing it against Dargie Green. Uff, I need to go to bed.

Think it could work... like everything about the Bongo - it is all a matter of taste and what make's ya happy

I'd like to see a PhotoShop of this. I wonder if I could pull off a Chrome PS. I'll work on it tomorrow, too late and tired to try it out now.

Here is what I was able to get out of it. It's hard making flat black knobs chrome.

Not a Bongo player, but I can imagine it will look good... fits the other chrome hardware on the bass.
