Help! Where to buy fender Parts?

[Killstarz]

Im having a bit of trouble locating somewhere that sells fender parts. In particular a Precision bass 62 Tortoise Shell Scratchplate. (the dark tortoise shell with the pickup cover holes and the thumb rest holes).

the part number is: 0992021000

Link to the fender website is: [url="http://www.fender.co.uk/products//search.php?partno=0992021000"]http://www.fender.co.uk/products//search.p...rtno=0992021000[/url]


Ive had one price from a local music store of £53. was hoping to find one cheaper.

It MUST be the dark brownish Tortoise shell one.

I've a dark shell that was on my old '62, although it's arguably dark red more than dark brown (although TBH on an Oly White or 3TSB bass they look similar)? Given we've the Badass thing going on sure we can sort something

Is it supposed to look like a real 60s guard, or do you specifically want the Fender RI look?

If it's the former, [url="http://www.pickguardian.com/pickguardian/Standard%20Materials.html"]get one from these instead[/url].

In the states they are £30 plus £10 shipping

I cant remember if this is under the duty threshold you would probably get away with it but no guarantees

Thomann will cost you about what you have laready been quoted

I want it to be the same shade as this:



It doesnt nescesseraly need to be the fender one, however it does need to be that colour and have the same amount of holes.
