MAKING or selling NEW parts for Steel Guitars? Post HERE
Upon so far one member asking for a Sticky Thread for Parts and Manufacturing.
This thread is ONLY for:
- if you MANUFACTURE / MAKE Parts for steel guitars
- if you offer to MANUFACTURE or MAKE Parts on demand (aka. Prototyping)
- if you are available to TREAT Parts, like polishing, lacquering etc.
- if you are selling NEW or NOS Parts or Assemblies (Eg: changers, tuner heads, cabinets, legs, and other parts to BUILD and instrument).
If you have old "stuff" for sale, please go the Buy'n'Sell section of the Forum and unload it there for all to see.
To keep this like a catalogue easy to search thru, please do not post "comments" including flattery or questions.
If you have questions, please PM or email the "providers" directly.
If you feel a post is fraudulent or develops a bad track record, contact me directly via PM or email.
Thanks!... J-D.

Tablature KILLS SKILLS.
The uses of Tablature is addictive and has been linked to reduced musical fertility.
Those who produce Tablature did never use it.
I say it humorously, but I mean it.
