The website has been updated for 2025 and says they're taking orders. Losing Mike was an awful hit, but if they can somehow compensate for his organizational and PR skills, I'm certain they'll be OK.
My oldest Mullen turns 50 (maybe 54!) this year and still works just fine. |

With the sudden passing of Mike Maney Jr., Since he had taken over management of Mullens Steel guitar. Will leave a void to fill. The family needs some time to recover from Mike's sudden passing. Del may have to come out of retirement and take the helm again.
I need to order some Mullen PRP parts, A guitar I bought is in need of a changer pull and some TLC. |

| Bobby, I heard a while back that no PRP parts were available. Hope you find some. |

| I emailed and got a response from them within 48 hours about a receipt, no problems. I'm sure Mike left a void, especially with a backlog of orders and moving to a bigger location. Time is on their side, God bless Mike. |

I haven't seen an announcement about who's at the head of the Mullen company since Mike's untimely passing.
Of course Del is still with us but he had shifted the deal to Mike. Don't know how many other family members or capable employees they have now.
Shaun still involved with the company?
Just curious. I'm sure it's in good hands. I wish them all the best and continued high profile in the steel guitar community. They're top notch guitars and people in my book. |

| From their FB page, it looks like Del has come out of retirement to assist and Shaun is back taking Mike's place. From what I can glean Jeanette is no longer with Mullen. |

I sent an email with some parts that I want to order and got a response from
Lynette the next day. I tried to order the parts from their website, but the cheapest shipping quote from the website was around $220 for a few pulls and some small parts. |

You'll need to talk to them, direct. I imagine you'll have to go around the web-site.
