Threaded inserts for Fender steel leg sockets?
Posted: 23 Feb 2016 8:20 am
Years ago I bought a pack of threaded inserts that I thought would allow standard 1/2"-13 legs to fit the 3/4"-10 leg sockets on my Fender Deluxe 8. Then I never used them because I fixed the original legs that came with the steel.
I've wondered if anyone else has ever tried this approach. It's cheap, and you can keep your steel's original leg sockets.
I think these are the ones I bought:

They are only $9 for a bag of 5. They might also be available at a good hardware store.
I've been meaning to share the idea for years but keep forgetting. I was just reminded by a WTB post by Keith Bolog so I thought I'd mention it here in case it proves helpful to someone.
