part number for american pro bushings?

Post by JagWire » Sat Feb 09, 2019 12:55 pm

Does anyone know the part number for the rubber bushings that keep the bridge posts flush with the the thimbles on the american pro Jazzmasters and Jaguars? Or perhaps where I might buy them?

Many thanks!

Those anti-rocking bushings do appear to have a separate part number (7710508000) - see Am Pro parts doc linked here ..

....
SLEVE THIMBLE AM PRO JAG/JAZZ 7710508000

But I have not seen anyone selling that part under that number. They are not included with the aftermarket Am Pro bridge ..

But they now appear on several Fender JM/jag variants ...

.. I have only seen them for sale on this Japanese site ..

(that may or may not be the actual Fender part)
Although I don't read Japanese, it looks like ID might be 6.5mm and OD 8mm.

Just updating this thread. Riley is the only current source AFAIK to buy the 7710508000 nylon anti-rocking bushings separately ...
