Linus27 Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 Does anyone know where in the UK I can buy a set of Fender 70's jazz knobs like the ones in the below picture? Quote
skankdelvar Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 First off, try fender uk - they may have a set. If not you could get the train up to Denmark St in London and try Rockers or one of the other shops, where you could buy 2 packs of strat knobs (Vol, Tone, Tone) leaving you with 3 spare knobs. or fire up yer browser and go to: [url="http://www.allparts.uk.com/plastic-knobs/for-strat-c-277_1_91_98_100.html"]http://www.allparts.uk.com/plastic-knobs/f..._91_98_100.html[/url] ...and buy a 2 pack of tone and a 2 pack of vol, leaving you with only one spare (tone) knob. Probably considerably cheaper, if you take into account the train fare. And they're nice guys, so give them a call first to check that the knobs will fit the pot shaft. You then 'age' the spare in a jar of cold tea (no milk) for a month and sell it on the bay as genuine 50's strat knob for £150.00 Quote
BOD2 Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 Same things available here [url="http://www.axesrus.com/axenob.htm"]http://www.axesrus.com/axenob.htm[/url] or here [url="http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/category/Hardware___Parts/Knobs/Fender_Replacement_Knobs?page=1"]http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/category/Hardware...nt_Knobs?page=1[/url] Quote
Jono Bolton Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 I'd agree with axesrus, they offer great service. I would give them an email first and explain what you're after, they'll probably be able to send you out a set with 2 volumes and a tone, which would save you having to buy two sets. Alternatively, buy a set of 2 volume knobs, and I'll you a matching black tone knob for free, I believe I have one spare. Quote
bremen Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Is it OK if I have a quick snigger at the phrase 'jazz knobs'? Thanks! I feel a lot better now :-) Quote
