Loose knobs on RS-2 Ventura

[psemme]

Hello!
I just acquired a beautiful RS-2 Ventura that sounds amazing.  The only issue is the volume and tone knobs are all wiggly. I opened up the back and the pots themselves are secure.  They all work fine but I'd like to find a way to tighten them.  I applied a bit of upward pressure on one knob to see if it would come off, but it didn't budge, so I backed off that approach.  Any advice would be most welcome!  Thank you.

I'm not a guitar tech but I would suggest having the knobs taken off. There is a tool for this

and then check the nut on the pots to make sure they are tight and the pot shaft doesn't wiggle. If the shaft doesn't wiggle then it's the knobs and you can order new one from Larrivee website if needed.
If the shafts wiggle it's a bad pot that can be replaced.
If you don't want to work on it take it to a tech or lutier for them to look at.
Hope this helped, good luck.

Knobs are either knurled (press on) or they have a set screw. If you don't see a screw on the side, they pull off. I have the Stewmac tool shown above and it works well.
Be aware that if your knobs press on, there are various sizes for this. Not only the size of the tip but the number of knurls pee inch. It's best to find out what maker of pot you have, that way you have an idea.
