Hellzero Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 Mods, feel free to move this to the right place! Ā Is there someone in the USA who can order small parts (only available for the USA) from Ernie Ball and send them to me in a padded envelope? Ā It's not much, but I would appreciate to have these spare parts. Ā Please contact me through PM. Ā Thanks a lot. š Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 Have you already tried the UK distributor Strings and Things? I ordered pickup covers from them a couple of years ago and they were really helpful. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mokl Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 (edited) Have you tried contacting them directly? It was years ago now, but they sent me some saddles for my 80s Stingray at no charge - was very impressed with how helpful they were.Ā Ā I just emailed them with a pic of the bass and serial number.Ā Edited December 10 by Mokl Autocorrect 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pineweasel Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 4 hours ago, Hellzero said: I'm in Belgium... š I too have bought various parts for my Stingrays from Strings and Things. Maybe the Belgian distributor is similarly helpful? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chriswareham Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 I can confirm that Strings and Things in the UK are super helpful. I bought a second hand Ray 34 last year, and it was only after I got it home that I noticed the "treble side" machine head was bent. Strings and Things sent a replacement free of charge after I made an enquiry about spare parts. If you have no joy with the Belgian distributor, perhaps one of us Basschatters in the UK could try getting the parts for you and sending them on. Worth noting that most it not all parts on the US made Stingrays are not compatible with the Indonesian made Rays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellzero Posted December 12 Author Share Posted December 12 These are small spare parts for my very old real Stingray @chriswareham š Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted December 12 Share Posted December 12 I have an address in the USA that you are welcome to send the parts to. There would a charge for getting them to me and forwarding them to you, but it solves the problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellzero Posted December 12 Author Share Posted December 12 Thanks a lot @hiram.k.hackenbacker, I'll send you a PM a bit later as I have some work to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
