Search the board here. You will find all sorts of info on knobs.

I buy exact duplicates from Small Bear Electronics in NY.

The knobs from Small Bear are EXCELLENT!!!!! New konbs really enhance the look of the amp...other than the fact that they aren"t originals they look Identical and shiny new and unworn appearance is great!!! They get my thumbs up!!! I ordered 25 and will be ordering more in the future... Look great on my K200 B2!!! GET SOME!!!!!!

Thank-you sir.. I may end up using those. I ordered a LOT of over knobs on EBAY, which supposedly had ONE kustom 7-sided in the bunch. Im HOPING thats the one I need.

I already relisted the lot to resell with 50-some minus one Smile

Hmm well THAT was a bust.. It's the WRONG knob. Shocked

I contacted SMALL BEAR we'll see how that works.. Would I need a whole SET from him or does he have replacements?

If anyone here NEEDS this other knob- its 7-sided, LARGE, and has a LINE on top instead of the silver insert.. All Black.

Well malabarspuder - looks like you've been on the proverbial "wild goose chase." I hate it when that happens. I've got some knobs, one of which may be what you're looking for. If you could post some pics and measurements for exactly what you need, I'll look through my knobs and see if I have a match. Cool

I was the one that posted the Small Bear link here. The only difference I could find between the original knobs and these replacements, was the size of the indicator dot. Some, but not all of the older knobs had a slightly smaller white dot.

These knobs are set screw types and not the "D-shaft" press on type. The older Kustom knobs were also set screw types.

Thanks to Chicago Bill I just got mine today and as stated - The White Dot may be a bit larger ~ But who the hell knows how big they where 40 yrs ago! The part number I ordered was : 0808B

Dead ringer for the Plexi knobs.

Thanks Bill - And I promise - as soon as I feel a bit better - Dinner it is!
