I posted this elsewhere, but does anyone have any idea where I can locate three of the knobs that came on the '88 and '89 MIJ Jazz Bass Specials? It's a black plastic skirted knob with a Fender "F" on top.

Thanks!
David

These black plastic Fender Elite knobs were found on Fender Elite models both strats and teles, as well as the Fender Precision Lyte Standard basses, the Fender HM basses and, of course, the MIJ Jazz Bass Specials. The knobs also came in white (with a black rubber ring) for certain guitar models.

To my knowledge, Fender has never created genuine replacement parts for these knobs. As a result, people are asking outrageous prices for these knobs, used. Most of the used knobs had the paint on the numbers wear off. I have seen prices range online from $20/knob to $40/knob with no takers at that price.

The good news is that AllParts and Guitar Parts Resource sell replica black Fender plastic Elite knobs in 2-packs for under $10 (not including shipping). These reproductions do NOT have the engraved "F" logo, though.
