Are Fender knobs interchangeable?
Guitar knobs and pots are not universal, however, knobs and potentiometers (also called pots) only come in a few different types so it’s not hard to make the right choice. There are spline split shafts, solid shafts, and then coarse and fine spline split shafts. Different knobs will fit differently.
Will Telecaster knobs fit on a Stratocaster?
You’d need to replace the potentiometers with ones that have the same electrical value but a different shaft- traditional Telecaster knobs fit onto a solid shaft pot with a little screw to secure them while Stratocaster knobs slide onto a split shaft pot with the “splines” on the post keeping the knobs in place.
