I have a 1939 model 59 body that I found on ebay a few years back. It was spraypainted gold and I immediately reversed this indignity (no trace of the greyburst, so I think it was stripped before the gold)
I would love to bring this axe back into service (maybe blue chrome this time)

So far I have the body and a horseshoe. I need nut, bridge/saddle, tuners, knobs, logo/badge and case.

I prefer originals, but understand that they are rare. Rick Aiello has given me some sources for repros and I'll probably use these as temps till I get lucky.

I know its a longshot, but any help out there. Will pay reasonable price and then some.

Thanks
Bert

I've been in the same boat, Bert. I don't even have the H'shoe. I do have the tuners, so that helps. Mebbe we can get something going here with some people that need parts, and get a machine shop interested in making them for us.
