Great look, tight fit
The aesthetic is fantastic and matches my hardware well. It was a bit tight to push on initially, but once seated, it feels very secure. Just be careful not to crack it during installation.

Good but check your shaft size
The knob itself is beautiful, but I didn't realize my American guitar used imperial shafts. It wobbles slightly. Make sure you actually need metric before buying!

Authentic Japanese quality
You can tell this is made in Japan. The molding is clean with no flash, and the silver paint hasn't chipped after months of playing. Highly recommended for builders.

Best aftermarket knob available
I've tried many brands, but HOSCO remains the gold standard. The proportions are correct, and the finish is durable. Will buy again for my next project.

Perfect fit for my import guitar
Finally found a metric knob that fits my Japanese Strat copy perfectly. The silver top looks sleek against the black base, and the quality is exactly what you expect from HOSCO.

Exactly as described
Needed a replacement for a broken tone knob on my ES-335 clone. This metric version slid right on. The contrast between the black and silver is subtle but classy.
Q: What is the return policy if it doesn't fit my pot?
A: We accept returns within 30 days provided the item is unused and in its original packaging. Please ensure you verify your shaft size before installation.
Q: Can I use this for a volume knob as well?
A: Yes, this knob cap is suitable for both volume and tone controls as long as the potentiometer shaft is metric and the correct diameter.
Q: Will this fit a standard American Fender guitar?
A: No, this knob is designed for metric shafts (6mm) commonly found on Japanese or import guitars. American Fenders typically use imperial shafts (1/4 inch).
Q: Is the silver part metal or painted plastic?
A: The entire knob is made of high-quality plastic, including the silver top section which has a durable metallic finish.
Q: Does this come with a set screw?
A: No, this is a push-on style knob cap and does not utilize a set screw. It relies on friction to stay attached to the pot shaft.
