The name comes from it's distinctive silhouette; flaring out at the base and narrowing toward the top, resembling the profile of a classic bell. Beyond it's stylish form, the bell knob offers players a comfortable, ergonomic grip and smooth control over volume and tone. Embossed guitar knobs are a step up in quality from stamped versions. This method is a nod to traditional craftsmanship of earlier production methods. By pressing the numbering directly into the material, it ensures a clean, crisp imprint every single time while giving the numbers a distinctive, three-dimensional look. Cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) is a durable, organic bio-plastic derived from renewable sources such as wood pulp and cotton. The very same plastic used on original, historic guitar models from the golden era; giving parts made from CAB not only a vintage look, but also the authentic feel and aging characteristics players expect. Unlike modern synthetic plastics, CAB develops a warm patina over time, making it the choice for restorations or for anyone seeking that period correct touch.
