Re: Selmer Bundy Bass Peg Screw

I believe Ferrees carries these.
Although my Bass has its own I did make one for a Vito. Using a piece of (I forget which) either 1/4 or 5/6 steel rod long enough to project through the "other" end, thread one end about 1/4inch long. Tighten a wing nut on the thread and put a hex nut behind it. (epoxy the two nuts if desired). With a file make a flat deep enough to allow the peg rod to slip through the hole on the Bell attachment. Round off slightly what will be the top end of the flat so as to imitate a cam action. Insert the gizmo and then the Peg rod while adjusting the "gizmo" so as to allow the peg rod to slip past the flat. Once through the flat adjust the length of the peg rod and tighten the wing nut thus "camming" the peg rod against the hole wall. This does not duplicate the Bundy mechanism...which is easier to use....but it does suffice.
