Hi everyone,
I am having a time locating a replacement handle for my case. Any body have a source for that?
Thanks,

Kirk, is it a strap handle measuring 8-1/2 inches from screw hole to screw?
If it is, e-mail me. _________________ Email: azpedalman@gmail.com

No it is the original handle. The steel in the handle itself has been flattened and it hurts to try to carry that thing.
I would like to use the brackets that are on the case now and just replace the handle itself.
Do you have a leather handle with buckles that may work?

Hey Kirk,
I have some saddle skirting scrap I might be able to cut for you. Let me know how long and how thick you need the strap. ....Joe Rouse |

Hey Kirk,
If the case handle is still in good shape, you might try putting a bicycle handlebar grip on it.
I found a pair of BMX-style handlebar grips with some sort of gel inside for about $2, cut through one side, and tied one onto my case handle and my amp handle with twist-ties.
It made it almost a pleasure to pick up the case.
