Older Marlen parts

I need to find parts for an older single finger pull/release Marlen, about a 1976 model. We are adding the lower neck, so we need it all!! If you have anything---------------

Hey James,
Contact Rick McDuffie at Tarheel Music in Smithfield, NC. Rick owns that music store, is a steel player, and can put you in contact with Lennie Stadler,Leonard Stadler's son. I believe Rick told me that Lennie is a minister in the Charlotte, NC area, and he has access to Leonard's Marlen Guitar Company parts. You can reach Rick at 919-989-1805. Rick is also a minister with two churches, two music stores, and plays music. He is a super nice person and will try to help you. I hope that I have been some help! Vann Cranford

You may want to check with Mike Calaway at mikec30@adelphia.net. He built Marlen guitars for Len Stadler at one time and
he retains a setup and repair shop at
present. He may be able to help you.
