Good Flightcase Hardware/Amp Handle Co.

Hey guys

In particular I'm looking for some surface mount spring-loaded amp handles for my Scout 15 cab.

I bought some butterfly catches from reliable hardware last year but they feel like garbage to me. Looking for something better.

Thanks.

CM

Do a google search on spring loaded handles. That will keep you busy for a bit. Lots of possibilities there.

Meh. Too many possibilities, too much imported BS being passed off as quality. I'm already busy, I have searched, and I have no desire to wade thru the muck any further.

I looking for suggestions from TBers who have had actual experience with these vendors.

I've bought hardware from both www.speakerhardware.com and www.bltsound.com. Each company had a different selection of parts.

As for "Chinese garbage," garbage is garbage no matter where it's made. Many companies do quality manufacturing in China.

Original Post edited. Correct sir, I shouldn't be picking on China. I should leave my personal work-related experiences at the door.

Thanks for the suggestions, just what I was looking for.
