Question LeFay Bass 5-String

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a LeFay 5 string bass. The bridge contains the saddles and the tuning pegs, however it is still strung like a normal guitar. The thumb screw and screw post are stripped. Can anyone help me get a replacement thumb screw and screw that goes on it? Thanks for your help, I can't get a response from the LeFay site.

Did you use this e-mail address?

Dobbratz Reiner reiner@lefay.de

Any way you can post a pic of the thumb screw and screw post? I've built replacements from commonly-found stock. Several pics (all angles) would be nice.

Thanks

Riis

Which model do you have?
I'm quite sure Reiner will help if he can.
He's a very nice guy indeed.
