Fender Dog Bone handle replacement - UK
I recently purchased a Vibro King where someone had replaced the original rubber dog bone handle with a leather handle which is too long and looks a bit daft. Does anyone out there know of a quality supplier of a leather dog bone handle which is of a similar length to the original?
UK based preferably.
Thanks

I think the originals were molded plastic, surely there's a leather shop there to make you one.

Perhaps a Vibro King would be a little heavy to trust with a leather handle? A "dogbone" usually refers to the brown heavy, molded plastic handle Fender switched to after the leather handles. My '57 Deluxe Reissue has a leather handle and I think that is barely strong enough for that amp. My 59 Bassman LTD has the dogbone handle and it feels quite sufficient to handle the weight (53 pounds).
Just throwing that thought out there for consideration.
