Dopro 2xK2195-V+2xK2195-T-Dopro Aluminum Guitar Knobs, Gold, 1/4-Inch

Made from aluminum, these gold top-hat knobs give guitar, bass, or audio equipment controls a coordinated metal finish. The 2V2T set is arranged for two volume and two tone controls, making it a practical choice when replacing a matching group of knobs rather than updating a single control. Each knob uses a set screw to secure it to a potentiometer shaft, and the included Allen wrench lets you adjust the screw during installation.

Their 1/4-inch inner diameter suits many solid, split, and D-shaped shafts. For a split-shaft pot, align the set screw parallel to the shaft’s split gap during installation.

The CNC-machined aluminum construction gives the knobs a solid metal look, while the finished edges are described as free of burrs and sharp edges. Their set-screw design is useful when you want a knob held in position on the shaft, rather than relying on a push-on fit. The gold finish also offers a straightforward way to give a set of instrument controls a consistent appearance.

Compatibility & requirements

These knobs are designed for potentiometers with 1/4-inch shafts and are compatible with most solid-shaft, split-shaft, and D-shaft pots. They can be used on many guitars, basses, amplifiers, preamps, power amplifiers, and other audio equipment with the matching shaft size. That broad shaft-style compatibility makes them a flexible alternative to choosing knobs made for only one shaft type, while the measured inner diameter remains the key fit requirement.

For split-shaft pots, position the set screw parallel to the gap in the shaft before tightening, this helps avoid damaging the shaft. Use the included Allen wrench to adjust the screw and secure each knob. A practical installation scenario is replacing the volume and tone knobs across a guitar’s four-control layout: the matching top-hat style keeps the set visually consistent, and the set screws allow each knob to be fixed in its chosen position.

Who it’s for

This set suits players and audio equipment owners updating multiple potentiometer knobs with a gold aluminum style. It’s especially relevant for a 2-volume, 2-tone control layout, or for other equipment where several matching knobs are needed. If your priority is a coordinated metal finish and a set-screw attachment, these combine both in one top-hat design. The listed compatibility includes many Strat-style instruments, as well as Yamaha, Ibanez, and Les Paul models, the 1/4-inch shaft measurement is the practical guide for choosing a fit.

Final verdict

For a multi-control refresh, the Dopro set brings together a gold aluminum finish, a 2V2T arrangement, and set-screw mounting for 1/4-inch potentiometer shafts. Its broad shaft-style compatibility and included Allen wrench make it a useful choice for updating guitar or bass controls, or matching knobs on compatible audio equipment.
