    Pots are pots, knobs are knobs. An amplifier uses the same pots as a guitar. Older tone capacitors were often rated 400 volts. Why? Makers just grabbed the caps from the amp guys and used them in a guitar even though it doesn't come close to 400 volts.

      Some knobs are for knurled posts, some for smooth.
      The inside diameter can prevent switching them out, but usually a smooth bore chicken head knob can be used for a knurled post.

      Looks silly on anything but a vintage BC Rich and a few others though.
