Re: PATB-1 Parallel Axis Trembucker
You can also solder or super-glue a nut to the bottom of the mounting tabs and then put the screws through that.
Too bad I got hold of PATB-3's for my Hamer Diablo and Robin Medley. I would have considered a PATB-1 for the Medley for sure. Both guitars have the pickups direct mounted, though I kinda just put the screws through the threads in the baseplate and then into the body cuz I didn't wanna drill out the mounting tabs. I can't really adjust the height now, but it's set where I like it.

Know anybody with a bunch of tools? If so, see if they have a tap & die set. They would be able to put new threads in it.

I put bigger than standard screws in a pickup that had been drilled out. I tried to glue new nuts to the tabs with superglue, JBweld, Araldite, and even tried soldering them on but nothing held. In the end the solder made the hole a little smaller and the bolt was able to tap it. Work that out.
Also posting to register interest in the PATB-1.
