Which knobs on my bass??

[wild4oldcars]

I have a fender zone bass that looks pretty much like this bass here, except for the electronics and strap buttons:

However, i recently converted it from passive pups and an active pre to active pups and passive controls so that on top there is a jack, vvt, and a dummy knob. because the knobs on the old pre varied in size, i cannot just reuse the knobs. i don't know what looks most aesthetically pleasing to me at all, but i would certainly like to keep the diameter of the knob small because the pots are fairly close together. oh, and please no chrome domes

any advice or opinion is appreciated, thanks

Knobs are quite individual. Personally I love strat style knobs, but dont like the speed knobs. In this case I'd go with non-guitar knobs, but rather those:

Thanks a lot for posting that! I’ve been looking to replace the knobs on a couple of my basses and I was unable to find a place with a good selection. I’m sure I’ll be able to find exactly what I want there.

Thanks again!

If you scroll down, the large black aluminum knobs are my favorite. They feel great and look good too.

does anybody know of any aftermarket manufacturers of the "f-cap" knobs that came on the jazz bass specials and p bass lytes in the 80s and 90s? those might look pretty cool, ive always liked them

Two things I'd like to point out in that direction are:
#1: they're not so small;
#2: they're sure neither tight, nor resistant

Be sure not only look inspires you
