*cough* Needs an amber switch tip *cough*
I love the feel of those knobs though. I have a set on my Gretschcaster.

You think you can't, you wish you could, I know you can, I wish you would. Slip inside this house as you pass by.

Re: New knobs
That would probably have gone better with the original knobs

You'd be surprised
The one on my Gretschcaster actually compliments the natural wood of the neck...

Re: New knobs
For maximum Gretsch-ness, shouldn't it be a metal switch tip?

Now that yellow button on the strap looks weirdly out of place...

Re: New knobs
I actually like the gold speed knobs that come on the early streamliners. They have a cool retro look. The more recent ones have a black knobs that look pretty terrible.
But yeah, the silver G knobs are best suited. I second the notion that you need a silver gretsch switch tip to complete to look.

Re: New knobs
I agree however those switch tips are imperial so won't fit... and I'm not for wiring in a new switch to fit the tip
