Karl Sandoval Knob Conspiracy!

Post by IWasMaiden93 »

Ok... Not really a conspiracy, well at all, but it attracted your attention, didn't it? Anyways, I was drooling through my Randy Rhoads 30th Anniversary box set (Notice the Randy and not Ozzy box set) and noticed that in earlier photos the spotted V has white volume/tone/etc knobs on it and laster ones have black knobs... Can anyone explain this?

Feel free to ask questions! The search function is okay, but any discussion that gets away from the "box" is more than welcome in my opinion!

The oldtimers around here often spout off about continuing Randy's "legacy" and then talk smack when newcomers ask questions...

Sorry, Jay, but that was uncalled for. How are the new kids gonna keep the candle burning if we offend them when they inquire?

I like to add that if everybody would use the "search function" and not starting new threads this board would become very quiet......

Ok i'll rephrase the comment,how about start a thread without a misleading title to get peoples attention like renaming the thread something like"Whats with Randy's knob" or something like that :lol: Hey I'm all for questions just post without the misleading titles-it's lame .Or maybe I'm the one who's lame and should take so geritol and calm down :mrgreen:

I had to lol at the thread title, if your from the uk you would understand :). I think the black volume knobs look the best, The white just conflicts with the dots.

The search function is very tempromental it works for some searches but others are just giving back far too many threads to search through. It's cool for someone to ask these type of questions like Pat said if everyone went for the search option no one would be making threads on here.
