What about using Tele-style knobs instead? That'd certainly be different...

Schaller make a solid brass, chrome-plated speed knob. Not the same as the semi-matt finish on the Platinum, but would match if you have chrome hardware.

The only place I know that sells them is Touchstone Tonewoods (item 5151 on this catalogue page):

Those would look friggin' sweet with matching chrome hardware. 8)

Thanks for the links, I didn't want OTT shiny bling, and I was thinking of a brushed aluminium scratchplate, so I wanted knobs more in keeping with that. The Schaller matt chrome Tele knobs have potential.

To throw another site in the mix: http://www.axesrus.com/axenob.htm

they're my usual first port of call for cheap upgrade gear. I hadn't noticed that they had brushed chrome tele domes (it's off to the side of the main pic), I think that could be the way I go.

Looks good, aye. They pretty much have the same stock as another great site - www.guitarfetish.com - but are based in the UK and the site is nowhere near as well organised. The GF one is really good.
