Nothing in the descriptions mentions - what is the difference between these and the P-K540 to 542 series?
Asked by Anonymous on January 5th, 2017.
Hi, the numbers on these are embossed. There is very little visual difference but the numbers on these are slightly more 3D. I hope that helps.

Is this a 20 point spline that will fit US made CTS split-shaft potentiometers? What is the total knob height in inches?
Asked by Anonymous on January 19th, 2017.
This is a fine spline knob and does fit CTS split-shaft pots. We checked this against the CTS pots we carry in house. The knob height is .48"

What is the purpose of the speed knob?
Asked by Anonymous on July 29th, 2017.
There is more mass to the knob as compared to a top hat style knob. Some people prefer the larger surface area as it can be easier to grab with a singer finger.

I have a 73 les paul custom do the speed knobs make it quicker to bring up the volume?
Asked by Anonymous on July 29th, 2017.
It is personal preference as some feel it is easier and quicker to use a speed knob. All guitar pots have a torque rating and this equates to how much physical force needed to spin the pot. Our Bourns pots (R-VB-500KA-SP) have a low torque and are very easy to spin.

Will these fit ORIGINAL 1952 pots? Standard gibson speed knobs are a little too tight.

We do not have sizing on the original 1952 potentiometer shafts to verify, but these are designed for use with a standard 1/4" fine knurled shaft pot. Some people have found that very gently crimping the two sections of the split shaft slightly closer together made the knobs fit better. Naturally, if doing this, it is done at one's own risk and we can not assume responsibility for damaged potentiometers.
Product Reviews
The knobs work fine, they just came with a lot little scratches on the top. Not what I was expecting from something brand new.
