Looking for 2 black PRS speed knobs for my 1987 Custom 24..I’ve tried everywhere and now of the opinion that the proverbial hens teeth are easier found.

    I was puzzled so had a look & you are right about availability.
    The only differences between 'standard' Gibson speed knobs & PRS seem to be in the tiny in-between number lines/tick marks (present vs missing).
    Also it seems there are 2 sizes, Alpha pots have a coarse thread, CTS a finer thread (Edit: both USA non metric).
    So I reckon you'll get some to fit, but if you are into total detail accuracy, you might struggle. Good luck

    Couldn't say with real confidence (owners/luthiers chip in here?) but I believe they'll be fine threaded.
