Glass knob is broke (SSV)

  1. Well I don't know if I would call it broken, but when I try to turn it on and off the glass knob keeps turning without turning the metal knob on the inside. Its just sliding off. I have to press it in to get it to work.

    I looked at the inside of the glass knob and the plastic looks worn off. (It shouldn't be plastic in the first place) That's how it was pretty much since I bought it, but it has just gotten worse and now it's getting very annoying. I don't want to have to buy another knob, I like mine.
    Anyone have the same problem?
     
  2. Slob on the knob like corn on the cob
     
  3. Of course theres probbly some sort of plastic sleeve on the inside as they can't make glass get a good grip on the splines on the temp control

    Either you need a new knob, or maybe you can even get a DBV knob if it fits and you're on a budget
     
  4. I'd try putting a layer or two of plastic wrap around the post, the knob may be able to get a better grab on it that way

    could always use a dab of clear silicone too
     
  5. gorilla glue. it expands like a bitch. ive used it to repair stripped out strapnuts on guitars etc....
     
  6. after using gorilla glue i would never be able to take it off, right?
    I wanna leave that option open in case I want to get a new knob or the glass breaks etc.
     

  7. which is why I suggested silicone, yeah
