Would like to find a tab for Will the Circle Be Unbroken on e9 - preferably download or email format if possible

I just use ordinary hex nuts from the hardware store.

and they don't slip or move around once inside? How do you get them in?

Need to replace worn return springs, and the idea to create them seems simple - find some sort of threaded insert that will grab and hold onto the inside of the spring. But does anyone know the actual ...

I ended up getting in touch with him. By the way, received the bell cranks yesterday. Thank you!!

Looking for MSA changer D10 E9 assembly probably pre 1985. If I can't find whole assembly even fingers would be great.

The rods marked with the Red Arrows are interesting. I wonder where the other end attaches. They are not pedal rods. The flat metal bars with a hole in them are where the pedal rods would hook.

Yep

Paul

Please! Thank you sir!

Can't find any. Looks like PSGparts is out of stock. Does anyone have ~4 or so bell cranks that would fit a 3/8" cross shaft? Picture below.

It does seem like a challenge to find them!

Itâ€™s a non-branded guitar Iâ€™m dealing with, and as I said the current tuning nuts are a creation of the builder I guess. So will there be a ...
