Gibson Legs?

Post by Steve Merritt »

Does anyone know the thread specs for the legs on a mid 50's Gibson console? And/or if the legs that Bobbe Seymour sells will be the correct fit?

Ok, Bobbe Seymour says his legs are NOT a direct fit, meaning I would have to buy the sockets and route out my Steel. I don't want to modify my steel. Still looking for the specs on the thread end of a the legs for a mid 50's Gibson Consolette.
Thanks!

I'm sure if you would drop by your local hardware or machine-shop and have them find the right tape to fit and they can tell you the correct thread-size that you need.
