Angry strap bolt broken

Sign in to disble this ad
I have an Ibanez bass that I have had for about two years and for a while the screw for the strap on the bottom of the bass has been loose. Now the screw has completely fallen out, and now I cannot play standing up with a strap. Yes, I have tried screwing it back in but the hole is now too large and the screw just falls out. Is there any way to fix this? I need some help because I don't want to have to get this bass replaced because I really like it. Any suggestions or help would be greatly aprreciated.

+1 This works. Even Elmer's glue is sufficient.
