EVOL! Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Installed some witch hat knobs on my Classic yesterday. As much as I love speed knobs, these witch knobs sound great. My tone was killer at rehearsal last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btoth76 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 It does the trick on it's own, or You had to upgrade to 50s style wiring as well? Seriously, they look good on Her. Cheers... Bence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bence Witch hat knobs have a tone all their own. It's one of those secrets Gibson won't tell you. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of those secrets Gibson won't tell you. :-& So then why Gibson stopped using them at the end of 70s? :) Hell, one more quality issue to deal with. Cheers...

L5Larry Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Certainly makes a bold statement, but a little busy for me. I would prefer black reflector tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxom Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Well, it's very strange. It plays very well, though. Loving it. no more squeeling from shielding and a new ground wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxom Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Also, is the Cobra logo attached to the guitar, or is it like a gigantic pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub-T-123 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Love the whole look. Where'd you get those knobs? I kinda want some for my SG too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVOL! Posted September 30, 2012 Author Share Posted September 30, 2012 Also, is the Cobra logo attached to the guitar, or is it like a gigantic pick? It's an iron on patch that I ironed on to the pickguard. j/k It is an iron on patch and it's attached to the pickguard with some sticky Velcro. I figured if adhesive damages the pickguard I won't cry. The nitro finish is another story. And a good ornament will divert people's eyes from my ham-handed picking.

EVOL! Posted September 30, 2012 Author Share Posted September 30, 2012 Love the whole look. Where'd you get those knobs? I kinda want some for my SG too I ordered them from The Music Zoo. They are All Parts witch hat knobs. When, not if, you order the knobs for your SG make sure they fit USA split shaft pots. I am sure you know this. Just throwing it out there for everyone else. I love the witch hat knobs because they remind me of a beat up mid sixties SG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
