Barking Spiders Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 BTW this isn't an insult to all you guys!Ā š. Fact is, I've got a bass up for sale where the control knobs are a bit knackered and need replacing. The most convenient store for me is Bass Direct but I 'm a bit gobsmacked at the prices, between Ā£6 and 12.. each it seems and I need five. Are these prices normal and if not where can i get cheaper plastic ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Fleabay is your friend here. Most of the control knobs I've ever bought have come either from there or from Fuzzdog. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discreet Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I can't really see clearly what sort they are from the pic, but I get my knobs from Northwest Guitars. https://www.northwestguitars.co.uk/push-fit-metal-volume-tone-knobs-for-stratocaster-telecaster/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Steve Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Thomann for me - while you can spend stupid amounts on, for example, PRS knobs, they also stock a lot of very reasonably prices stuff - for example Warwick knobs are pretty cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassace Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 My Genzler Magellan is a great amp But the knobs make it very difficult to adjust on a gig. Nice and arty but the dot on the front and reference line on the circumference are mostly invisible. You canāt beat chicken heads for backline.
