Title: Cry Baby feet?
Post by: DutchMF on November 06, 2013, 06:03:29 PM
Does anyone know what size and pitch the screws are that hold down the Cry Baby feet? I've tried every screw I have here, none of them fit!

Not metric, on mine they check out to be 6-32, same as Hammond enclosure screws.

Tried those, didn't fit..... Could it be they used different sizes for different production runs?

Checked two more Cry Baby's from the last 20 plus years and a Vox and they're all the same. Were they ever manufactured outside the USA?

Checked threads with one of these. http://toolguyd.com/lee-valleys-nut-bolt-thread-identifier-tool/

Thanks for the effort Dave, much appreciated. I'll check out that link When I'm back home from work. Tonight I'm in the rehearsal space where my main board is, so I'll just rip the feet off my stock Cry Baby, and put them on my Weener.......  ;)
