Do you like my knobs?

[JoeTam]

Always liked the lower profile of Strat-type knobs, so went with these Q-Parts acrylic tortoise shell UFO knobs for my Honeyburst Y2D. Seems to be a pretty good match.
Who else likes my knobs?

Not my cup of tea, but it sounds like you like them?

Yeah, I like them a lot. I was going to go with regular black plastic strat knobs, but couldn't find any to fit the 1/4" pot stems.

These are a nice, hefty metal, and have a brass sleeve that's removable to go from 6mm to the 1/4" (6.35mm) shaft so they'll fit any guitar. They seem to turn a bit quicker than the standard domes that were also on there.

Thanks! Just bought them on a whim and was really surprised how well they matched the color.

Man, that looks really good! Well done!

Nice, not my fav type but looks good on that guitar

Cute geetar, but the knobs - I'd stick to the stock ones. As I tried to convert a SUB1 to Morse Specs I asked CS about the source of those knobs and they answered, they get them custom made for the Morses. Will you sell me yours?

I don't know what's custom about the original black dome knobs on the Morse. They seem like the same old dome knobs on just about any other guitar. The hole fits 1/4" pot shafts. You can get them from places like Stewmac for 1/4" pot shaft (most USA guitars) or for import 6mm pots. Dome Knob - StewMac

sounds easy but in Germany I´m not able to find the exact same specs: diameter, height, riffle and shape of the head. Closest one is from Harley Benton

In my Pic #3 and 5 from left are original, the one between is the Harley Benton, but still different. The other ones were ordered by trial and error...

Those are very similar to Gotoh dome knobs from Japan. I love that type. They come in normal and short, sort of like the first two pictured above.
