Hey guys
Would somebody be able to tell me if these would be suitable to go on my
05 hollow t classic?

http://www.ekmpowershop15.com/ekmps/shops/rarebreed/flat-top-tele-knob-x-2---nickel-plated-solid-brass-2-p.asp

I like the heavy knurled effect but not sure the shaft size or type on my hollow t so I was just wondering if they would fit.

Thanks for any help

Andy

Those look like they would work. I'm pretty sure pots have like an "industry standard" on size so it should work just fine.

"industry standard" now theres an oxymoron. many things "look" standard but it's amazing how many different everythings there are.
our pots are a 6mm shaft so you'll need the brass sleeves like knurled pots need when you use a set screw knob. but at least they'll turn true on the solid shaft.

Thanks for the response guys its much apreciated.
To be honest cant work out if its worth the cost/effort? £40 /$60 does
Seem quite alot for a small cosmetic change, I dunno. :confused:

Thanks again

the knobs we made back in the old days at schecter were awesome. not too tall but with perfectly formed knurling. would love to have those again...but not the machine that made them. they don't call them screw machines for nothing:o

These are the best.

They won't work on any of my guitars, though.

I'd think these would look and feel better.
