Does anyone know where I can get hold of replacement screws for the back plate of the Silver Eagle Microphone and if possible the base plate?
Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

You stand more chance of getting struck by lightning and surviving then winning the the lottery all on the same day mate , they are like hens teeth the only way is to just keep searching ebay even try U.S ebay but those microphones are getting rare now and most for sale are complete and go for silly money I've got three my mate has eight and we wont sell them lol

Hi Martin.
It would be good if they are still in business and can help or suggest a suitable alternative.
Thank you for your help. I will check their website out.

I know I was being a bit joking in original post Ray about being struck by lightning lol, but in a way I was being serious, parts for those are getting hard to find now and my advise to have a look on ebay every now and then inc U.S ebay ,sometimes some are sold as none working complete so it might be worth while to buy one of those cos parts for them seldom come on sale cos normally there working complete ones and they can go for silly money now.

I should give you a "dislike" for giving a Turner mic away
It's not just the size of a JM+2 mic, i can never understand why so many straight edges and corners!

Yeah I know I always found it like holding a oversized cigarette packet lol I've got three Silver Eagles and a hand held D104 minute man , i sold my Astatic Teardrop to someone on here a long time back ,shame I should have brought another one of those when i could , my mate has about 6 or 8 Eagles i cant remember how many his always buying them I know he has a couple of limited edition ones and a final version one in the glass case.
