If you name an official replacement part, it is gospel. Then all afficianados with the "disintrested eye" can sleep soundly with a complete piece.

Now who made those screws ?

They were made by Bulgin along with mellotron plugs, sockets and control knobs.  They ceased manufacture years ago.  We still have the smaller round knob made in quantity from the original mould for the  Vol, Tone and Pitch pot on the M4000 and as a spare for owners around the globe.  

Best,

.....Just twist the wires together and plug it into a power strip with a switch!J and start playing! 
“McGuiver” it until you locate a suitable replacement.  That switch must have been used in other things. 
I seriously doubt that it was manufactured just for the Mellotron.  Martin would probably know.  The original
manufacturer may be long out of business and if Martin can’t find them I bet no one can.

I see.  I think if mine broke I would just make it turn on somehow.

Hi Gino,

Probably because we aren't too popular either! Anyway, the VERY few switches we have are not for re- sale, only for personal use. There are no others available anywhere and we have truly searched high and low and then high again!

Best,
