Backyard Machining Gurus

Post by Scorps »

Howdy Y'all,

Need to get a part made for a new custom guitar I had made. The std Part is crap and doesn't go close to working like I need.

Can anyone out in Trials land machine up something like this for me. Can be made from ali, but brass would be better. I have some design changes which will make fabrication easier.

If you can help out, or know someone who can, let me know.

Cheers,
Your friendly neighbourhood KawiMan,
Scorps

Hey Scorps

Didn't know you were a bass player - good luck with the hunt but if you want me to stick my head into the shops on the Parramatta road, I pass them every day - any excuse to go play...

G'Day Paul,

I don't think Bass People or any of those shops down there will carry one of these - even if they did, the inherent design is flawed.

Don't let that stop you calling in for a noodle though!

Cheers,
Scorps

Here is my baby:
