I am building a Kingslayer which will go into a 1590B enclosure.  The standard oxblood pointer knobs (Davies 1400) like what SmallBear has are too large.  Does anyone make a smaller oxblood pointer knob?  If not, what good alternatives are there?  I plan to use a polished aluminum enclosure and want a look that is similar to the Klon.  Does anyone make oxblood/maroon knobs in other styles?

It's kind of oxblood (maybe a little more brown)

Any idea what size these are?  Are all 1400 knobs >1 inch?

I'm surprised the 1400s are too large for your build. They're much smaller than what's on the real Klon (1470s). I use the 1470s on full sized klones and the 1400s on 1590BBs or smaller.

Sorry, the Smallbearelectronics oxblood knobs are 1470s not 1400's.  I have not been able to find oxblood 1400's.

I've got some chicken heads from AES but they'd be too big.

Why not paint with artists acrylics, colour possibilties are infinite. Golden even has a colour calculator that shows you what colours and proportions to mix together to reach your target colour.
