Repairs to a bass case


PTB

Recommended Posts

Saw a friend at the weekend who keeps his bass in a hard case where two of the catches are broken. He asked me if I knew of anyone in the Croydon/ South London area who fixes such things.

I don't and a search on here didn't find anything either. Any suggestions please?

You can get new catches from Allparts ([url="http://www.allparts.uk.com/collections/tools-and-guitar-care/cases-and-case-parts"]http://www.allparts.uk.com/collections/tools-and-guitar-care/cases-and-case-parts[/url]) or just google for other suppliers. These can be installed with a pop-rivet gun (£3.45 from ebay - [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/POP-RIVET-GUN-60-RIVETS-AND-NOZZLES-4-DIFFERENT-SIZE-RIVETS-INCLUDED-/380814306298?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item58aa4d2bfa"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/POP-RIVET-GUN-60-RIVETS-AND-NOZZLES-4-DIFFERENT-SIZE-RIVETS-INCLUDED-/380814306298?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item58aa4d2bfa[/url]) or just bolted on.

Yep, pretty much what I'd be thinking of
