Looking for a 5/8" stainless bar

[Daniel Payne]

Hi all,
I have a 1" bar and a 7/8" bar for my fender dual 8 pro, but I really want a 5/8" bar and have been having one rascal of a time finding one at any stores I have been to or even online. Any ideas? Thanks!

Daniel, shoot me an email. I might have something you could use. I'll check the measurements when I get home from work this evening.

2 1/2", 2 1/8", 1 15/16", 1 3/4"

Take your pick.

Take your pick.

I hate to tell you this, Richard, but those aren't picks.

Lee,
Now I think I understand why I never got this steel thing down.
Daniel,
I think I also have some longer 5/8" bars than the ones posted above.
They're old, but the stainless steel ones are still in good shape.

Daniel,

One of our fellow forum members Marty Smith in Cal. custom makes them. He will make any thing you want. Get in touch with him with your dimensions and he will make it. I have a special and I love this bar. He polishes it to mirrow finish and hard to tell where the body joins the round nose.

Hope this might help and God bless you and yours,

Ronald Smith

Daniel:
Tribo Tone made in Austin, Tx has a 5/8 bar; They make an exceptional bar in my oppinion.
