| Does anybody have any shape or size of one of the above guitars with a factory installed vertical knee lever. If so would you mind taking some close up pictures of it and forwarding them to me. I have seen several with verticals all of which were different designs so I assume they were done after the fact. I have a handful of MCI parts I am would like to see if I can come up with a way to add a vert that is close to original if possible. |

Jay, check out Lonestar Steels. lonestarsteelguitar.com
From what I understand, they are essentially, what was once MCI/EMCI.
Also, Carter and GFI verticals, I am told, will fit an MCI. |

James, I would appreciate it very much if you could forward a few of those pics to me as I have most of the parts I think and need a photo that I can show a machinist to make the lever and maybe a stop for me.
Carters have smaller crosshafts so their parts won't work and Gene will only sell me parts if I have a GFI guitar. I will check Lonestar, thanks I didn't know about them. |
