Sturdy and stay in place. Worth mentioning that all knobs (according to Obsidian) are designed to sit flush along the tops, rather than along the bottoms.
Ordering was a breeze, shipping timely and I installed it easy…quality is great and sound choices are awesome…

Recently bought an Epi Les Paul Standard pro thats about 10 yrs old. It had scratchy worn pots and a goofy switch. Id used Obsidian before on a Tele build and was so impressed i decided to get one to fix this really nice epi. Super simple to install,works like a charm. Couldnt be happier with it.

Great product. Easy to install. The one issue I had, which I recommend Obsidian Wire to note (they may have and I missed it), is that the control plate is slightly too large on an American Professional II telecaster. Luckily, the old one was around and it took me a few minutes to swap components over.
An additional point is I just found the installation graphic instructions to be a little unclear in terms of orientation which resulted in me installing everything in the reverse order. Self-critiquing mistake. So it would be great if the instruction diagram were just a little clearer for us dummies.
