dudewheresmybass Posted October 1, 2007 Posted October 1, 2007 this may sound silly, but have you tried Aria themselves? The SB 1000 was reissued a couple of years ago, so they may have or be able to get spares. 1 Quote

Bassassin Posted October 1, 2007 Posted October 1, 2007 Try asking on the [url="http://www.matsumoku.org"]http://www.matsumoku.org[/url] forums - someone might be able to point you in the right direction, or might even have a spare couple lying around. Jon. Quote
Bloodaxe Posted October 1, 2007 Posted October 1, 2007 I'm in the market for a bunch of these as well (5 "normal" & 2 "pointed") &, as yet, have drawn a complete & utter blank. The nearest I've found are [url="http://guitarpartsresource.com/gknob7.jpg"]these[/url] from [url="http://guitarpartsresource.com/guitarknobs_plasticother.htm"]guitar parts resource[/url] but they're not right. I'm considering having a go at casting my own out of resin. But it's at the "just thinking about it" stage. Pete. Quote
Mistahbrock Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 (edited) Greetings People I too need a pair of knobs for an Aria Pro II Elite bass I am doing a 3D model, but I have no measures of the original knobs, so if anyone can measure the dimensions I can adapt them into my model. I made a little screencast : http://brockman.dk/uploads/knobbish.mov It's made in the free software blender : https://www.blender.org I since made a shorter version, let me know if you want a copy of the 3d model file The teardrop switchknob or one very similar is around on eBay, if needed: https://www.ebay.com/itm/BLUE-SEAL-018145-TEARDROP-KNOB-FOR-FRYER-THERMOSWITCH-TEMPERATURE-CONTROL/253491124561?epid=1849086563&hash=item3b053f9951:g:BIgAAOSwiHZbDu5Z And if you have an old bass in the need of a fresh-over or upgrade I found this guy in finland https://www.rautiaguitars.net/aria-pro-ii.html Best regards, Brock Edited June 26, 2020 by Mistahbrock Quote

They are plastic (early originals are metal, later ones plastic) but they are excellent reproductions. 1 Quote

Kiwi Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Useless factoid here, but look up "Raytheon knob" on Ebay and a load of Aria-like knobs will show up. It seems Aria may have been inspired... Quote

I've had two sets. One because I sold the bass to some absolute cretin who sent it back to me for a refund minus the knobs, and then another set to replace those. Worth getting them for authenticity.

jaybass 70 Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 sound, I've had good service from Repro guitar parts, good products too Quote
