Hi,

I have two prototype Adamas walnut knobs for sale. Bought them once on ebay and as far as I remember a former New Hartford employee was selling them. The bushing diameter is 6.8 mm. Excellent condition. $50 / 40 Euro including shipping worldwide. Payment per paypal.

Best wishes

Karl

Money sent, thank you Sir!
I have a 1537 arriving Tuesday and those should fit nicely for the time being.

Gorgeous, Mikey! You ARE keeping that one, yes? Great score on the knobs AND the guitar!  Where can I find some strap locks like that?  Ebarf, perhaps?

I'm always amazed that some people can sell a 1537. I couldn't.....

I'm bonding with this one in an inseparable way. Willa - I use the dunlop Straplocks on all of my kids. You can even buy bulk quantities directly if needed. http://www.jimdunlop.com/product/straplok-ready-buttons

Me, too, Paul, even though I did sell one of my three.  I still have my black one (<~~ shown in my profile pic) and my tobacco burst (or whatever that is called) ... 

I wish I could get the one I sold back!  It had the best neck of the three, which was just a tad bit more 'V' than the other two.  Fabulous, fabulous guitars!

Your new baby looks like the one I sold (actually, traded). I love the natural tops!  Glad you are keeping it.   Thanks for the links to the Dunlop straplocks.  I gotta get me some o' those ...

One odd thing about the new vs. original 2 knobber electronics. For some reason, the shafts on the newer reissue electronics are a little larger in diameter than the originals. The old knobs don't fit on the newer shafts.......
