oh no! that's pretty bad!
did it actually break, or did the screw just came off?
On mine, Italian, I noticed soon after I got it, that the handle screws were feeling a little loose. I tightened them and I noticed every once in a while they feel a bit loose, so I just check them regularly. Just in case.

Yes the plastic that surrounds the screw has broken so no way to re-atach it. I bought the amp locally so going to contact the shop tomorrow to see what they say.
