The knobs on the Sheena and Road to Ruin, are those accurate to Johnnys guitar? Im not 100% sure. I saw a pick with differnt knobs then the Sheena or RtR.

the spun mosrite style knobs were correct to mosrites of that time period. Johnny never cared much about keeping guitars in original condition. he replaced them with what was available. The replacement is a tele style knob on the volume, and a gibson SG style bell knob on the tone. But I think he first replaced them with just tele knobs on both, and one probably just got lost is my guess, not totally sure though. But if you notice on his single pickup white johnny model that semie made for him in the early 90's, the knob was replaced with a tele knob as well, so I think Johnny just preferred these.
Cheers,
