Westone Guitar knobs.....

Seriously...i seen a thread about them but why are they SO rare?? i class things like this

Very Common - Strat Copies, Squiers etc.

Common - Fender strats (New ones)

General - Gibson (some westones)

Uncommon - Vintage gutiars in general (westone fenders gibsons teiscos)

Rare - Pre CBS fenders, a full guitar after a "The Whos" gig etc.

So why are westones Knobs so rare? every time i see someone who goes "I have a westone" in a guitar forum has usually lost the knobs :/

Im lucky enough to have the original knobs for my guitar...anyone else in my category without repros?

Anything out of production will eventually become a rarity.

All of my Westones as well as my Electra have the original knobs.
