That's the ticket. Got some for my S10 Stage One. Amazon seller. Makes the setup easier. |

If you only need 2 to replace them on 1 steel guitar. Check local Ace Hardware, In the drawers at the nut, bolt, screw section they have them, They sell individual. They have a brass nut with threads molded in the plastic. GFI have a type of those nuts that are standard on their pedal bar. |

Those look nicer than the run of the mill wing nuts but be sure and check for the correct size. Those 1/4" parts in Larry's link seem too large even for P/P's, but I may be wrong.
I know the guitar I'm playing has 10-32 threads and some others have 10-24 bolts/studs...so check before ordering. |

I installed knobs to attach the pedalbars on both of my GS-10s. Lots easier to find than wing nuts when they fly off the studs.

I used star-shaped knobs like Jack's to replace the set screws securing the legs to the body of my Sierra Artist. You get a nice good grip with these things and they're easy to find, particularly in poor lighting.
As mentioned above, be sure to get the correct thread size - found out the hard way there are a couple! |

Jerry 1/4 -20 is the correct size for most PP’s, I ordered them and put them on 2 PP’s I have, worked great after all of these years, what wasn’t I thinking. _________________ '70 D10 Black fatback Emmons PP, Hilton VP, BJS bars, Boss GE-7 for Dobro effect, Zoom MS50G, Stereo Steel amp, Telonics 15” speaker.
