Need Screw (Bolt?) For Fender Jazz Battery cover

Recommended Posts

Hi

I've managed to lose one of the tiny screws that hold the battery covery on to my Fender Deluxe Jazz, and I can't seem to find a replacement anywhere - any suggestions?

Also, has anyone put a screw-less battery box in a Deluxe Jazz? Is there one that fits without having to change the shape of the compartment at all?

thanks
Dave

Not a Jazz but my bass has similar to this in it, it clips in rather than screws but tbh the clips if pressed against can let the edges rise up slightly ........


GuitarPartsResource do a range of them, some screw-less. If you have a control cavity cover on the back you could have an alternative one made rather than cut up the original.

Yes. Google for a local fixings/fastenings supplier. Take another screw out of your bass. Take it with you, show it to them and ask for four just like it.. They'll probably come back with, " what colour would sir like, and will he be wanting Phillips, pozi, slotted, Allen or Torx-headed!"

Seriously, though, a good shop like that is indispensable. So far, my local one has supplied everything from bolts to wall mount my tv to imperial Allen keys for my MIA Jazz.
