Fender TSA Flight Case Parts

Updated! See below

The latches on my Fender TSA flight case are all shot. Rather than toss the case, I want to try to fix it. It took me a while to find a number for Fender. (At the time of this post the number for consumer relations at Fender is 1-800-856-9801).

After a while on hold I spoke with a rep who told me that Fender doesn’t have parts for the case but he referred me to https://www.skbcases.com and they have a few replacement latch options (though not exactly what I need). I reached out to SKB Cases via email with details of what I need replaced, will update when I get a reply if they’re able to help me.

update: I heard back from customerservice@skbcases.com who asked me for some photos of the case and latches and they’re shipping me out the needed parts to repair the case. Really great outcome here and definitely recommend SKB for their great customer service.
