The tailpiece is worth that much. One could scrap the rest.

I would ask them to throw in the bed cover as well, keep that and put the bass in the bin!

I still get calls from stateside technicians telling me all the Phillips head screws are stripped in our products... freaks them out when I show them a pic of a Robertson bit.jps wrote:My old '60s Traynor cabinets were full of those screws.bitzerguy wrote:"Not available to Canada" yet he used Robertson head screws.

IMHO, those Robertsons are much better than Phillips heads.

Too bad ol' Robertson refused to license 'em to people such as Henry Ford. Otherwise we'd probably never have heard of Phillips head screws...jps wrote:IMHO, those Robertsons are much better than Phillips heads.
