| | |  Stock Strunal endpin diameter
Does anyone know offhand what the diameter of the stock endpin on a new Strunal plywood is? I don't have the means to measure mine at the moment, and I don't trust my eyesight with very small measurements. I'm trying to find this information because I need to order a wheel as soon as I can. My bass is the 50/4F, if it matters, and I got it at David Gage's shop in NYC.
Thanks very much for your time.

Peace.

Hang in though, there should be some other owners of this model of Strunal out there.
And, by the way, droo...you're a sick puppy!

Maybe they can tell me... it seems like they have the answers to everything there.

I think Gage changes the end pin on the Strunals he sells, but mine was 10 mm. I'd suggest you take the pin out and bring with you to buy a wheel, or just call Gage and ask them what size it is. |

I kinda figured it wasn't the endpin the bass originally came with, but I wasn't sure. I'll call the shop; they haven't responded to my email yet. |  | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
