Knob and Bushing Puller


Read 30 Reviews   |   Write a Review

Stubborn hard-to-remove guitar control knobs? This must-have "two-in-one" tool from Schatten Design applies a steady, controlled pull to safely remove them. It also includes hardware to easily extract Gibson, Schaller or Gotoh bridge and tailpiece stud bushings, without damaging the guitar.

For just removing standard knobs, consider a simple Knob Puller.

The Knob and Bushing Puller's clear acrylic housing has a rubberized base to help protect the guitar's finish.

Tailpiece bushing removal tip:
In some cases, especially with Gibson guitars, the tailpiece bushings are installed before the guitar is finished. To avoid chipping the finish, we recommend scoring the bushing with a sharp knife. For stubborn bushings, careful heat from a soldering iron will help break them free.

Instructions and bolts for pulling various threads are included:
5/16-18

Knob puller works great!

Got the knob puller recently as a Christmas present, and it works very well. The upgrades to a clear body and protective ring on the bottom are good, and let me work safely. Knobs and bushings come out quickly and easily!

Time Saver!

Gone are the days of trying to wedge a flat screw driver under the knobs and slowly trying to pry up the edges, all while wedging a folded up polish cloth underneath as not to damage the guitar finish!
This works exactly as it should and is a real time saver for my busy shop. Another homerun for Stew Mac!

Saves damage and hassle

Had this a while now and would not be without it. Its handy for removing stubborn control knobs but where its really great is for removing bridge post bushes.
A great tool

A simple idea that works.

Although I received my K+B Puller sometime ago, only yesterday I used it for the first time, by pulling up the knobs of my Strat. Very easy to operate, in the end you get excellent results, no damages in the knobs nor guitar finish. Great tool !

A must for repair shops

one of those tools that is just worth the money to have in the shop for those specific times you need it. Sure, maybe you could assemble your own, but would it really be worth taking a whole weekend when there is so much guitar playing and football watching to do?

No more mistakes

One of the most useful tools in my shop. No more marring the finish! Invented by Canadian, Les Schatten.

Great little tool

I've been looking at this tool for some time. I purchased it when the acrylic tube was added. Pulling studs and knobs is effortless without any damage. Recommended.

Knob and Bushing Puller

I wish I had one of these years ago. Truly an artisan tool.

My only suggestion for a future upgrade would be an option to use a plastic adapter for pulling knobs as the metal one can scratch a finish if you aren't very careful when placing it under the knob skirt.

Worth having if you like your finish and knobs

The tool is simple enough, but the little extra details make it much easier to use and with great results. The bottom of the cylinder is lined with a silicone ring that cushions your finish-- that's a nice touch. Very easy to remove knobs and bushings in a controlled, casual way.
