Sierra parts?

Post by Al Carey »

Hi, I have a Sierra U12, not sure of the age. I recently suffered a broken part in the changer mechanism, I don't know what this would be called but I'm wondering if there's a source for them? Maybe Ross Shafer? Didn't want to hijack the existing Sierra thread with this...

Thanks in advance,
Al

Howdy Al,

Jim Palenscar/Steel Guitars of North County is the official parts/service supplier for older Sierras. I've hardly anything around here for the older rigs, but I'll look through my stuff to see if I have a bell crank for ya.

Turns out I have even less old Sierra stuff than I thought....no bell cranks, I'm sorry to say. Jim is your man (http://www.steelguitars.me)

He has some parts in stock and has access to all the remaining Sierra parts.

good luck, stay safe!

thanks for the responses, guys. I remembered I do have a few spare parts from a lever I removed. I'd still like to get one or two bellcranks to have on hand. Now that I know what they're called :lol:

Thanks again,
Al
