Tele Knobs

[blackfire]

Which one of standard Tele knobs do you like better on your Tele?
1. Flat top knobs
2. Dome knobs

I love my stock CV 50's Flat Tops as they match body style which is pretty much flat with almost sharp edges, same as tke knobs.

That's odd. My CV50s came with dome-top knobs.

These are my stock CV 50's knobs.

Yep, those are definitely flat. Mine, not so much... If they aren't stock, then someone pulled the old switcharoo at Guitar Center.

I like those dome Broadcaster knobs Callaham makes.

You mean

Callaham Early 50's Broadcaster Dome Heavy Knurled Knobs?

This poll needs an "other" option, by far the best knobs I've found for using on a tele are the Grestch arrow knobs, the larger diameter gives better control for making small changes to volume and tone and they look the part as well.

I really like after market heavy knurl knobs like Callaham and vintique. Dome seems cooler to a me than the flat top, but the knurl knobs are very practical.

I've got teles with both. I like the dome better. Feels a little more comfy on my pinky and I feel like I get a little more traction.

That's odd. My CV50s came with dome-top knobs.

My blonde cv has flat tops and A3 pups and my butterscotch one has dome knobs and A5 pups. Not just the finish thats different.

If I can't vote for these.... I prefer these

Callahams

I like dome knobs on 50's style guitars, flat tops on 60's style. These are my Callaham dome knobs on partscaster, big knurl and tall, love em.

I have hevy knurled flat tops, which I painted as I was bored with them. Will download some photos one day...lol..

Dome, fine knurl, and I like the ones with an insert to match the inlay if the inlay is anything other than black/white dot (my FMT had abalone dots, so I put dome knobs with abalone inserts on it and it looked fantastic).

I am pretty sure CV50 VB has flat knobs and CV50 BSB has dome knobs.
