Volume control knob for PC Speakers
Vigo:
A bit spendier, and you would have to get adaptors from 6.3 down to 3.5, but here is one with a genuine knob. Unfortunately, the knob is right on the jack instead of on the line. It might make mounting a bit difficult.

Edit: Actually now thinking about it, a guitar cable would only be mono. Nevermind. :-\

I wonder if you can take off that knob and put another longer stemmed one on.

This post helped me make one. I just bought the pot and a 3.5 extension, and located the pot in the middle, then found a shiny knob.

Thanks for that link, although I am looking for a pre-built solution. If there isn't one, I can solder one up.

I tried to find one just as you are describing and never could so I had to make one. You really want a panel mount pot anyway, and I doubt that exists prefabbed, or at least I wasn't able to find. It was very easy to make even for me :D

I am an electrical computer engineer and have pots lying all over the place from back in college. I don't mind soldering one up, I just figured it would save me a little time to order one.
