This replacement knob is engineered for studio and stage use where unwanted play or wobble in electronics can compromise take integrity. The gold finish integrates seamlessly with modern and classic guitar hardware aesthetics.
Specifications & Compatibility
Designed for 6mm split-shaft pots, this knob fits standard EMG pickup systems and aftermarket electronics using this industry-standard shaft diameter.
