My Knob Obsession

A Ficus
Do you like my knob?

In another thread the new Les Paul knows came up
And I became fascinated
Had to find them
There is a different set coming with O-ring



 
Re: My Knob Obsession

I prefer barrel knobs to top hats.
'Course my favorites are in the shape of little skulls.

Re: My Knob Obsession

I'm scheming how I can have a ton of knobs on an HH by using concentric pots: 2 volumes, 2 tones, and 2 spin o splits.
 
Re: My Knob Obsession

Jeeze, how about 6 joy sticks inside the concentrics?

Re: My Knob Obsession

It arrived with the plastic epi numbered top hat style
I had the chrome dome tele style laying round

As far as function
I really don't tweak the knobs much

I find the tone I like with the volume wound all the way
And ride it till I get bored
 
Re: My Knob Obsession

That just looks awful Ehdwuld. Put those stock tophats on right now! My knobs of preference on Custom builds are 'Q-parts'. They come in a big variety, and are best quality, but most important they aren't thin and tall like the cheap chrome knobs on Ehdwulds picture,which I don't like at all; the Q-parts knobs are low profile and thicker.

I have knobs like that on my Wildkat, they have abalone tops. Sorry I don't have a close-up, but this is the guitar and you can sort of see them:

Re: My Knob Obsession

Oh yeah speaking of knobs. I found out my favorite thing to use to hardtail a strat bridge. A knob. I shoved a chrome knob between the sustain block and the wood and it sounds good. Easy peasy. Tried plastic, sounded bad, tried wood, sounded ok.

Nope.

With an instrument like that, only Top Hats or Witch Hats will do.

Sorry. You asked! :p

The top hat heavy solid chromed brass at the bottom is the new one

The chrome Tele style are the existing ones

I think the top hat / ufo style are sexy

Like the wildcat above
 
Re: My Knob Obsession

I kinda like the fact that it is different than all of the other LPs. Let that freak flag fly.
