hooky_lowdown Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Does anyone know where I can buy a black plastic cavity control panel the EXACT shape as the picture below? I ordered this one, but the company sent a different one (slightly different shape), and said that was all they had, and having spent an age searching online I can't find another supplier. It's approximately (L)142mm x (W)62mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinB Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Have you got the original? I reckon someone who makes custom scratchplates/pickguards could probably do you a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_5 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Or if you don’t have one you could photocopy the back of the bass and use/send that off as a template. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooky_lowdown Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 Don't have the original. I could make one myself, but before I do that, I thought I'd check BC, see if anyone knew where to buy one, seeing as these are/were availble to buy from stockists.

hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Maybe consider renaming this thread to include Hartke SB15. That might bring in someone who owns one. Should be easy if they’re willing to help out 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Highly doubtful anyone will have one, the SB-15 was a really basic model - not in the same range as the (Vaccaro made) HK series… Tim would take a paper template or “rubbing” of the cavity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of persepx, hacksaw, drill, wet/dry sandpaper - what could possibly go wrong. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some sort of styrene / ABS ? What do people generally use? 2.5 - 3.0mm sheet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
