What a great idea! Now I never have to guess where my rhythm controls are set thanks to the numbers. Truly a wonderful upgrade! That said, the knobs have to be adjusted just right on the mini pots to be visible at the beginning and end of the rotation. Even then, they really would benefit from adding a 10 and even 11 so the wheel could be seen through the full rotation. Also, they're quite pricey for just 2 roller knobs that mostly indicate where your volume and tone are. Please view the pictures on the clear pickguard to see what I'm describing.

They look great.
I wondered why Fender didn't use numbered thumbwheels, then I found these. These wheels are exactly what Fender should have used. The mounting hole diameter is 6 mm for a Squier. In fact, I screwed up and didn't check before ordering. I contacted them right away and they sent me the correct size quickly and with no hassle. These thumbwheels are excellent quality, probably better than the Fender wheels, and the people at Music City Bridge are all about quality and taking care of their customers.
Great Idea! - But needs a #10
This is a great idea! Now I have to convince these guys that it's such a great idea that they need a left handed version of it (numbers in the reverse order)...you think I'm kidding...I'm not! Some companies make a true lefty and some are...Gibson USA which does NOT. Not sure about the custom shop...
