Screws for cab side handle

mark88 · 08-12-2008, 11:20 AM

A couple years ago I recovered a late 70's 4x12 base cab, bought new plastic handles for the sides....

I recall the newer plastic handles came with smallers holes and smallers screws so I had fill the exisiting holes for the handle screws with filler so the screws would screw in correctly.

Anyway, now the filler is starting to come loose. Instead of messing around filling again I want to do what I should have done in the first place and drill the handles for the larger size original screws. The only problem is I cannot find anywhere that sells the right size roundhead gold screws? Seems to me I need 5x20mm roundhead, philips screws, brass.
