AndyTravis Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 Small victory today while I wait for the shop to get the covers either refunded or send the ones I ordered... I got the jack socket changed to a silver nut and washer...switchcraft as per original black one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 Basschat to the rescue. a very friendly owner of a 63 “pure vintage” reissue bass has offered his flat covers and thumb rest so I’ve snapped them up and will return the incorrect items to the shop. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an aside, got a set of fender covers spare just before I send them back. Looking at them, it now transpires they’re the right ones and I should’ve looked more closely... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
