So, as there seem to be at least two arrangements of splined pot shaft which are not interchangeable, how does one go about finding whether a given set of knobs will fit? Especially bearing in mind I got my pots and knobs from the same vendor and brand... Which, I suppose, I should be discussing with them...

I ran into this issue last week, when replacing a Bourne push pull pot, which I think are 19 spline. The DiMarzio pot looks identical and was told they were made in same factory but spline count turns out to be higher (20-21?). If your eyes are really good you can count them 🤣🤣 I just had to go to my local luthier and ask to try some of his spare tuning knobs out till I found one that pushes on easily. Need to be very careful with push/ pulls because you can break the action and pull the spline out if your not careful (ask me how I know &#128557
