White Jazz Knobs.. Do they exist?

Sign in to disble this ad
Alright, so here's the deal..

I'm looking for a set of white knobs for a Fender Jazz.

No, I don't want skirted knobs, bell knobs, speed knobs, knurled knobs, etc.. I'm trying to find a set of everyday Jazz Bass knobs, except I want them to be white.. Or cream colored.. Yeah, you know, that neat white. I dunno. Whatever.

Has anyone seen these before, or know where I might be able to find them?

Just get your chick to use some white fingernail polish on them....unless you're a fingernail polish pro.

Offtopic amazing fact, a guy I work with for some reason decided to clean his cell phone's screen with a scrubby, it didn't go so well. He used clear fingernail polish and restored the screen. That's some handy stuff those women have.

I'm pretty sure nail polish wouldn't do the trick.. If I can find them, they're going on a friend's Warmoth body/Modulus Genesis VJ neck "Uber-Jazz" project. He owes me money if I can find a set

oh sorry, i forgot the for sale section of that forum is restricted to members with over 50 posts.
a member there is selling white jazz knobs for 2.20 euro per pair + 2.40 shipping to US
they are set screw and jaguar/mustang size so only two, no smaller tone one for jazz basses

That would be option #2.. But in white.

So, here's a question... Who here knows if Jag knobs and Jazz Bass knobs are the same exact size?
