Hello all,
For very old guitar a screw-bolt is needed.
Tell me, please, where is it possible to purchase similar?

These were usually square ended to be turned with a clock style key to adjust the angle of the neck..
If you can determine the shaft and thread size you can probably make one from a length of threaded rod.

Wow, just noticed that this is a double neck.
Looks cool from that shot, but no help on what bolt it takes.

Yes, this guitar very old, 1893 y.
I think, for the decision of problem (for bolt) it is needed to go to the lathe...

So there was only one adjustment for both necks? Seems problematic if one neck is adjusted properly and the other is out.
