z0mbee Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]I have recently become the proud owner of an Epiphone EB1, from 1998 according to the serial number.[/font][/color] [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]The guy in the guitar shop knew what it was, but doesn't seem to have had all of the parts when he acquired it second-hand. He had taken the pick guard off for an aborted sale, but has told me that a replacement is on order.[/font][/color] [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]However, when I pointed out that the bridge-end strap button is missing, he seems to have given me a bog-standard replacement. My understanding is that the original button has some kind of jig that allows it to fit in the large hole also intended for the telescopic stand.[/font][/color] [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Can anyone confirm this? If the original one is simply lost, is there anywhere still making replacements, or am I going to have to do something drastic like filling in the hole or screwing a normal strap button into the Body?[/font][/color] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
