I like the top hat knobs. I think it'd look good on a VM- not a huge fan of those stock knobs either. My personal favourites are the speed knobs (see my avatar) but the ones you've got picked out are sweet. Just be warned - they don't turn super-fast so if you're a knob-fiddler like me they might get annoying to gig with. (Main reason I don't gig with my SG.) I'd say go for it for 12 bucks. Good luck and post pics once it's done!

Before i try to yank them off to look can anyone tell me if these are split-shaft pots? Thanks!

 

Yes, I'm sure they are split-shaft. I've never seen anything else on a Gibson.

 

The reflectors are also my favorite. I recently took the amber top-hats off of my L-5 and replaced them with gold/gold reflectors. MORE BLING.

"Just be sure to use genuine Gibson Knobs.

 

Many aftermarket asian knobs may look like Gibson knobs, but they are designed for smaller Chinese knurled shaft Pots - and will crack / break if installed on a Gibson. "

Since your asking for opinions I'll tell you that I don't like them. I don't like them in any color on any guitar. In fact if I had a set to give away I would.

 

Having said that what really counts is what you like. If you like them then great. Go for it.

 

Variety in life... isn't it wonderful?
