Looking for a body and any electrics etc.(bridge-knobs-manual-anything you wish to sell!) to suit early melobar neck-I am in Australia--happy to pay with paypal & will add your fees onto my payment. -Thanks for looking

I think you might be best served by going to the source. Ted Smith has many parts and pieces. Look at the forum article and hit the email key on his listing. The link to his forum article is below. al

Thanks AL-have emailed Ted-but he has nothing!-thanks Dave

Hi Dave: I'm not sure what's up but around the first of the year Ted sent me a list of various parts so I assumed he had some at that time.

I am rebuilding a couple myself from some project Melobars I was able to get. I am getting the hardware shaped up basically bridge and nut parts.
From your description, it sounds like you have very little to work with. If that is the case look for a more complete instrument. The neck is basically the instrument. It includes all the hardware and electronics. It is held to the body by two or more screws but the body can be anything that will help hold the neck in playing position. Let me know exactly what you have already and I'll see if I can help you out. Also, How many strings are you planning to use? al
