Knobs are in and they look great. Kia on top of Wenge with a thin layer of maple. Matches the layers in the body and the fingerboard is Wenge.
I wanted knobs that blended well and didn't detract from the bass itself. So no white indicator lines or glow in the dark inlays, or anything that would stand out. Roger at THGknobs put dimples in as indicators which is more subtle.
I'm pleased.

Don’t laugh at that!! He doesn’t need encouragement. Besides, we retirees hate driving long distances without a two-day layover and multiple stops along the way!!![]()
