That's the place I bought the 1965 P I had for a while from. Good experience, good people to deal with.

That was a beauty miles, I remember it well

Here’s a question for you experts. My hootenanny button is missing. Should it be the same as the other strap buttons, and what sort of screw holds it in? It can’t be a normal screw as it’ll be too long, but a pickguard sized screw surely is too small to hold any weight (not that I’d actually use it?)

Here you go Chris, just a bit bigger than a guard screw

Ah thank you, so you happen to know the size? The pin looks the same as the other two. I think I have one somewhere.

I have some old Fender screws in the workshop. If Brian can tell us the dimensions, I can see if I have anything.
