Thanks to Darren Trott, I now have a set of vintage knobs for my 620TQ. Fairly average shots, I'm afraid:

I have vintage knobs on all of my gtrs. They are only a small mod, but a massive improvement IMO. Much better Howard....

I know what you mean Tony. It just takes one wrong knob to ruin your guitar.

Exactly Peter! Talking of which....your knobs seem to be pointing in an odd direction Howard. I am really particular about the way my control knobs point. Just one of those quirky things, but it bothers me when they're not right & I take great care when fitting them to ensure that they point just the way I like!

There are a few lines I could put out regarding knob direction but I shall resist!!

All five are about mid way in the picture, Tony. How do you set yours?

That particular guitar is an absolute knock-out Howard! The new knobs just add to it's brilliance!
Was great to see it in the flesh(so to speak) and to play it.
Let's do it again real soon.....don't forget the 350 though!!

As I said, Greg - any time!! It'll be a tough choice next time - what to leave at home (apart from the 4003)??

The new knobs look great Howard. I'm glad you're happy with them mate. Looks like everyone else agrees too!
