Jaguar Slider Swich Attachment HALP needed

Post by Thomas »

Does anyone have a link to a seller on ebay who sells screws/bolts to install the mini switches on a Jaguar. I need the nut and bolt type cos I think my sliders are just plain holed, not threaded. Any parts listed for guitar are drastically overpriced and I don't know the exact size etc I need to I've had difficulty tracking them down. For example 8 screws for Jazzmaster pickup covers are £8 but from a seller that just does hardware, not guitar stuff you can get 40 of them for half the price...

Worst case scenario you could just get yourself some new switches for a couple bucks. Usually they come with the screws too. I was looking for ya and didn't seem to find anything. You might want to look around on Allparts and EYGuitarMusic.com.
