Knobs Knobs Knobs!

I guess this is where this should go....since knobs go on the electronics.

Has anyone used

or

Quality? Looks?

Anywhere to get any other awesome knobs?

I like the Hipshot o-ring types: satin, chrome, black, or gold.
Now available in stacked configuration

I put pearl-top chrome knobs on my Burns Barracuda to match the chrome hardware and pearloid pickguard...


...to replace the crappy generic plastic knobs it came with...


...In my opinon, it really makes it look much more classy...

Lunarpollen, that looks great. I am going to have a pickguard custom made for the bass in pearloid, so I think the pearl topped knobs will look the best, but those abalone look so cool...maybe I do the 3 volumes in pearl and the 1 tone knob in abalone?

Superb, tasteful choice on that Burns... looks "factory" ... like they were MADE to go on that guitar.

Man, pearl chrome knobs would look classy as all get out on my Jazz. But since it has a black pickguard, I'm thinking those Hipshot O-ring knobs would look great too.
