Roosto7 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Purchased Gibson amber tophat knobs to replace the Epi knobs on the Broadway. Extremely tight fit, in fact I only have them halfway on, I don't want to force it. How do people get these to fit? Obviously, they have to be somewhat tight, but this is too much. Any suggestions? Anyone been down this road themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texasbluezman Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 There are a different number of splines on the shaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roosto7 Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 Gibson = imperial Epiphone = metric Aha. Just spent an hour using Swiss files on the inside of the knobs. Carefully, and slowly, they now fit fine. It's never easy, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
