Yamaha bb3000s parts

Hello!
Would any of the BB3000 heads on here know where i could find the following -

A Brass rear pickup cover
The 3 Brass control knob pointers

I've scoured ebay, reverb and all the usual places.
Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Maybe reach out to the number of Japanese vendors posting on ebay and reverb. I'd just love to know where to GET a fretted BB3000.
(You know...those covers are on lesser models. Worse case is pick up cheap axe with the cover and go from there?).

thanks, will contact those vendors...I also thought about the buying a cheaper model idea...but seems a bit mad for a few bits of brass.

There's 2 nice fretted 3000's on reverb at the minute...pricey tho!

Yes, I've seen them and have been in contact. And yes, very pricey! But I'm close geographically to seller so I'm still debating while still actively looking.
