More bolts/screws

More bolts/screws

2010-06-01 by zogher

John's query reminded me...

Does anyone have a spare or know of a source for the plastic/nylon bolt/screw that keeps the M400 front/rear panel screwed in? Is that a BA thread?

Thanks,
Chris

There's a bolt for those? 1407 never had them - the panels just slide 
right out. The only thing holding them in is gravity;-)

There are a lot of Mellotrons out there missing all kinds of little  
parts... and probably a few major ones as well.
