Hello i just purchased a fender jazz bass mim and the high/mid/low knobs on the guitar are very loose. What can i do to tighten these? thank you

do you mean the knobs pull off easily or the whole control (pot, potentiometer) is slopping around?

just the knobs themselves. ill turn them from 0 to 10 and if i put more pressure clockwise then it keeps on going.

OK ;look at the side of each knob there will be a screw in there either slotted or hex key. you need to tighten that. If it's not there gimme a shout back.

I see the screws, they are circular on the inside, should i use an allen wrench like tool to tighten it?
