I looked at Allparts and Bestbassgear and couldn't seem to find them.

Alembic usues simlar knobs to that, and they sell them speratly on there online store. Here:

Or these:

Now it says 12 and 14 bucks, but it dosent specify whether thats for one or for a set of so many. If its for one, I suggest looking elsewhere

Those aren't quite them (as you noticed), but thanks for looking....that's pretty nuts if they're charging $12 a pop; you can have wooden ones made for that price.

So why not step up the quality of the knobs and have a set of gaboon ebony knobs made in the same shape? Why you would put plastic on a bass like that beats me.

If you're going to go first class I can't think of a better way.

+1. I would definatly go wooden knobs, but still, if those plastic ones are what YOU want, go for it. Hell, its your bass...

Because I really like the look and feel of the knobs on my Elricks (I need a set for an Elrick I purchased used that doesn't have the same ones- the one in the picture obviously has them already). Not to mention I only like wood knobs if they are of an interesting wood....gaboon ebony knobs are pointless for me anyways, because I wouldn't want to pay more for something that's as black as a plastic knob.

Good point, although I do say go for a better wood. Which Elrick are we tlaking about? Your red one, or darker one (is it a walnut?)

My red bolt-on- all of my other Elricks already have the knobs I like; I got the red one used and it came with weird rubbery knobs.

Brian, I think you're neurotic :) LOL.

But check Mouser.com. I think they have them.

Ah, so YOU were the one who put the weird Hipshot knobs on it! I shoulda known :scowl: :D

Forgot to say thanks for finding that for me-thanks!

I emailed rob about something similar a while back and he can get them for you. If you don't have his email PM me.

Hey Bryan,I think we are tapped into the same collective mind,I love these knobs and have also been wondering how to get them.BTW thanks for getting me in touch with rob,My sixer ships to him this week!!ELRICK RULES!!
