A check of Ebay is in order. Maybe even just Google peavey bass knobs etc. Congrats on the T-40.

That's a beaut.

Most products sold as "Lemon oil" just have the scent of lemon added but are good for cleaning grime. They can liven up a rosewood board too.

Maple isn't a porous wood so any oil just lies on the surface,also they're generally lacquered to keep them clean.

So no special products required,just what you'd find round the house will do.

Hi there I'm looking to sell my 3 lighting bolt knobs and bridge off my 84 foundation

Was keen to sell as a set though if keen let me know
I know the going rate is $25 per knob but I'll do all three for $60 + bridge for $45 total $105 us

The catch is I'm in Sydney Australia and it's $22 shipping
So let me know I'll put an image up asap
