Just like a Telecaster knob from the same era?

I believe they used the same knobs on a Tele in to late 60's/early 60s!

Fender used a dome top Tele style knob on the earlier Stringmasters. I believe they went to the flat top knob in '57 or '58.
My '56 SM and '51 Custom have the dome knobs. My '58 1000 has the flat top knobs.

Mine is an early 60's. Anybody have some knobs or know where I can get them? I think StewMac might have 'em, but I'd rather pay for period-correct knobs. Thanks!!!
