WTB one or a set of JCM800 silver pointer knobs

[m1989jmp]

As the title says, I'd like to buy one of these or a set if someone wants to sell them like that.

I might have one. I’ll check after dinner.

This is what I have. It's Marshally, it's silver, but no pointer. It's a set screw type. PM me if it's what you need.

Ive got a spare pointy one, but I would need $25.
Pricey I know.
Its old, original, and has been reinforced with caulk, to prevent breakage, which was very common with these vintage knobs.
Once installed, you can not see the caulk.

Thanks for the offer, but it's the one below your post.

Still looking for these; got a set from early 80s Lead 12 and even though the plastic part looks identical, the cap is more of a faded golden color and a of a slightly different shape so it still looks off.
So if anyone has a silver one, I'd appreciate it.
Regards,
Marko.

How does this one look to you?
It has been reinforced on the back side.
$25 plus the ride.

Here are a few more pics with some contrast...

If you have the pointer knobs, but the tint of the caps isn't the same why can't you just buy some newer silver capped knobs and swap caps?

I have popped the caps off and reglued them before, in my case they came off pretty easy.

Because they don't look the same.
I would recommend buying a set of 6 pointers that all came off the same amp as the caps on those pointers actually can vary a bit lol us nerds!

If you replace all 6 caps they sure would all be the same. I have the same era amplifiers and you can just replace the caps and no one knows the difference..been there done that.

The real question is this:

Why on earth dosent someone reproduce these pointer knobs!

Not the "pointer" version.

They have the other style to.

There's no new pointer knobs being made, anywhere. A lot of us have looked for years. Hence my solution above..Non pointers are abundant.

I can accept no pointer knobs available... what I can't deal with is the sickly bright yellow gold color of the knobs starting a few years ago now...

There's also knobs that look like normal set screw replacement knobs, but are actually over 1/4" taller than stock Marshall knobs. Anyone buying replacements should be aware of them.
