Hey,
I prefer the look and size of the amber top hat knobs on my Les Paul. Just looks right. Maybe it’s just me, but I find them hard to turn fast and get a grip on, though. Is that an issue for you, ever?
If so, I think I found a cool solution. I bought a bunch of these:

….and they slip right over the top hats. I put 2 on each knob. It feels like the knobs Ibanez uses on their archtops, which I always liked…….but are expensive, after-market.
I guess the trick will be if they loosen up and fall off as they get older.
They don’t look too bad, either, I think…….
