Pimping a Squier Jazz bass
I bought a Fender Squier Vintage Modified Jazz bass V NT and I was (and still are) very happy with this instrument.
The only thing disturbing me were the poti knobs. Squier used knurled metal caps which are not looking really stylish. I wanted to have the optic of the Fender Jazz basses and found those replacement parts.
The bass is looking much better now and the knobs can be fixed very easy on the poti axle. Never had to touch the screws again. One more advanted: The white marks make the poti settings better visible as before with the metal knaobs.

Nice Potiknobs!
Not much to say, except that these are very classy black potiknobs for Fender Jazz style basses. They don't look at all plasticcy, they have that nice 'ceramic' look. They lock onto the shaft with a small a hex key. The only problem I found in the UK is that they seem to use an imperial-sized hex key. My standard metric 1.5mm hex key was just a bit too small and a 2mm was too big.

Perfect!
I have a Squier Jazz bass (vintage modified) which came with chrome barrel knobs and they looked quite bad.
So ordered these Fender original Jazz bass knobs, and when I got them my girlfriend didn't understand why I wanted to change the knobs, untill I did (fit perfectly thanks to set screws) and she then got that these knobs have to be on every jazz bass ever!.
Awesome quality, as expected for a fender original part.

Use nothing but the best on your Fender
Well made, good quality and will last years on your bass.
Best fitted to solid-shaft pots, you’ll need an allen key to secure them on with the included grub screws.

Worked great
I bought a second hand jazz bass which had a couple of the knobs missing which is why I bought this new set of knobs.
They look great on the bass and feel really solid. The grub screw for fastening was really handy and they have stayed perfectly in place since I bought them 2 years ago.

Stylish knobs for any build
I've installed them on my Squier Affinity P-Bass PJ OWT IL, and fell in love with the looks. The knobs might require little height adjustment depending on what potentiometers you have and what kind of "teeth" they have.
After many years it still looks amazing, grip is tight and controlled and it's smooth to the touch

Fender Potiknob Set Jazz Bass
I was upgrading the electronics on my Squier Fretless Bass and found that the standard Fender knobs simply look more classy.
These knobs are precisely what I was looking for,
Warning: The knobs I received are made in the USA and do require a US size hex key to fasten them on the shaft. All my other keys, metric I assume, did not work. In other words the standard metric 1.5mm hex key was just a bit too small and a 2mm was too big. Luckily I found one US hex key that did the job, lucky me.

Nice quality. they look like the old baker-lite type. Remember they only fit "split shaft" knobs not the push on version found on Squire basses for example. Good replacement or upgrade knobs.
