Metal one, I think it'd look awesome, ESPECIALLY on the sub. Anyone know where I can find them?

there was a thread on this some time ago, and I bleeb that it will fit.

I'm in the process of having a solid gold one made for my LEAL and possibly a silver one for my BCB AL.
(see my thread on the general discussion forum headed "a question for you mechanical type person")

The thread size within the knob is 10-32 UNF (also quoted as 10-32 NF).

I have a very cheap "Strat" type guitar and the trem arm is knurled rather than threaded so I dont think I'm able to positively state the "make up" of a Strat knob,but it is identical to the EB and is threaded 10-32 UNF too.

I'll have a dig about and come back on the metal knob if I find anything.

Well I couldn't guarantee that the silver/gold finish would last a long time,
but they are only $4.
Let us all know what you end up doing?

If you know a good machinist, he/she could turn one for you out of brass or stainless steel.
Just run a 10-32 unf thread and jobs a good un!!
