You mean wal knobs in general or just the ones I made? What's ugly about about them if it's the later?

I'm glad you like them, they look great on that gorgeous bass of yours 😍

Send me a PM and we'll chat :)

Price ranges between 10 and 20€ per knob. Depending on size and mostly how complicated it is to paint (Wal knobs are 20, Aria 15, Ibanez 10) I can also send them unfinished (printed and cleaned) for half the price if people are willing to paint and varnish them themselves The set screw uses an embeded nut inside the print, I could tap the resin but I'm sure I would not hold well : (mockup of the nut in black)

Colored resin exists but I never tried. I do have some green one, I'll test in the near future I could also spray paint the knobs before varnishing them

Hi ! I hope this is allowed. If anyone need custom/discontinued/hard to find knobs, I can 3D model and resin 3D print them. I've done it for Wal knobs, Aria knobs, Ibanez inspired knobs. Some 3D models : Some finished products pictures : Feel free to let me know if you want some

I do but I'm not willing to share them sorry. I can make the knobs for you though

It's very simple. I didn't 😅 They match the center for the two balance (I'm using a regular 2 band EQ), "5" on the center point. The balance one is centered on the "BT". And the master volume matches on the "10"

Here's how they look on the MK1 replica :

Hi all, a quick update, looks like the resin printed knobs are holding very well. I have a couple for more than a month underwater and they are still perfectly fine. Also left 3 in the sun/rain outside for the same amount of time, still looking great. Here's the last batch I made (printed, painted the markings, lacquered). FIY, the whole process of cleaning the resin prints, painting the numbers/letters and finishing takes about 3 hours of work.. Not a big fan of the shinny laquer, the mat one looks much better. Also the prints have a weird line defect, which will be corrected in the next prints.

Be careful with the link I shared a few post above for alt knobs, I got some more and they changed the font to a thin and ugly one

Hi all, just to let you know that I just started making some myself with a SLA Printer. I just got the printer yesterday so I'm still prototyping, but the results are already pretty good : After painting the numbers, cleaning up and varnishing (ignore the delamination at the bottom, I was trying to print it with support under) : I have no idea how these would age, I'm going to leave some outside in the sun during summer and some under water in the garage. If anyone is interested for some, shoot me a MP, but I need some more time to experiment

I can only tell you it's been made by a french luthier who wishes to remain anonymous 😇 I actually made the body of the black one in his workshop with him, very cool experience !

It is ! Thanks Nice try! I can tell you're going to try to rob me 😛 I'm close to Nantes (West coast of France)

A few months ago, I got a brand new Nate Mendel (Foo Fighters) Precision Bass for 1500 € new (Made in Mexico). It was horrible. Sent it back instantly. The nut was so bad : Truss rod was not centered : The finish was pretty bad too (even though there's a factory light relic job, this isn't part of it), frets were also a disaster : I found a used MIJ Precision Bass from 2012, which is 1000x better :
