Well the knobs were likely gold plated (which it looks like from the pictures) and the plating wore off due to a lack of maintainance (wiping down the knobs after playing, etc). Gold hardware also has a tendency to tarnish very quickly. Replacing the part or having it replated which isnt cheap are the only real options.
