Sign in to disble this ad
Just got this Carvin bass.
I want to replace the gold hardware with black hardware.
I haven't had to order replacement parts like these before.
Carvin does not sell them seperately.
Any preferred online stores?
Tuning keys
Knobs
Strap buttons
Thanks  |

Not really actually. Bass NW where I bought the bass does not for example. Plus alot of stores might have a mix of colors. Much easier to make one order online.
My main concern was getting the right tuning pegs as the headstock is very small. I thought someone might look at THIS bass and say go here.
I found them at Stewart MacDonald.
