No not those ones. These ones. !  Are these all universal for shaft length width etc.?. I need some for a Lakland 44-60. These are from Gear 4 Music for about a tenner..

 

Cheers.

length should be pretty much standard, but there are 6mm and 1/4" (6.35mm) shaft diameters out there. Also some guitars have splined shafts (in either diameter...) My Jag has splined shafts and that same style of knob, but the ones with lock screws in your pic are designed for plain shafts with a flat on them. You can also get push-on knobs for shafts with a flat.

So in short, no, there are at least six different styles...  splines, screw fit and flat push on in each of two sizes.

Actually.. a bit of digging, add coarse or fine splines to the list.

And 5mm EMG pot shaft diameter.

And long or short (~3/8" or ~1/2") shaft.

Not to mention 3/8" or 10mm fixing nut.

I'm boggled...

You can also get collet fit knobs for plain shafts, but they are probably too push for basses...

There is quite a few different types, you need to know your pot shaft size 😀 ( if you’ll excuse the expression)
