Lost my Tribotone bar - now what? Help!
I'm on the road now and lost my Tribotone 2.75" x .75" bar.
I have a substitute cheapo bar (non Tribotone), so I can keep playing. But it's not the same.
Are there any alternative bars available on the market now?
Thanks.

Gerald,
Are you on the road gigging? I could loan you mine for a while until you find a reasonable substitute. It is not in pristine shape but still a great bar and easy to play. My stainless bars are my current favorites and the Tribotone sits un-played. If you need it, just let me know where to ship.
Good luck,
Gary Meixner

you know, this reminds me of a story Mike Auldridge told once about why he didnt play with custom dobro bars - for this exact reason.

Found it! A fellow musician from last night's session found it. It fell out of my unlatched case.

bar
I'm glad you found it Gerald. If you ever need one let me know. My hand cramps with it so I am using a lighter ceramic bar.

Re: bar
Billy, bring that bar to the next Converse meeting and I'll pay whatever you think's fair. If you want to sell it, that is.Billy Gilbert wrote:I'm glad you found it Gerald. If you ever need one let me know. My hand cramps with it so I am using a lighter ceramic bar.
