BCR Greg Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Imagine that Uncle Greg is helping to clean out the house of a guy that worked on guitars in the 50's and 60's....and there are hundreds of boxes of parts for guitars, amps and other electronic ephemera....Now imagine that one of the boxes contains NOS Switchcraft toggle tips for the long shaft toggles that Hamer and Rickenbacker have used for years......the ones that Switchcraft stopped making creme tips for in the late 60's.Now imagine that the box is in the bottom of a bigger box on the bottom of a pile of bigger boxes and Uncle Greg is out of the country for the next two weeks.When I get back, I will sell these tips for $25 each to the first 48 customers that email me at greg@bcrmusic.com."Too much for a piece of plastic!" I can hear some say....well, then these are not for you. That's okay.Everyone that wants in, email me.
cmatthes Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Try to find them anywhere else.You most likely won't!
tbonesullivan Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 I need to figure out which of my 4 hamers have the short toggles, and get them over to BCR for long-toggle installation. I think 2 out of 2 are incorrect.
Roshark Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 I'm in . May I pretty please have two ? Email sent .
Jim Browne Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 I have no tip need, but I do hope that you'll post some photos of this archeological dig.That way, I can recalibrate the images in my recurring dream for more true-to-life (yours -not mine- unfortunately!) realism.
velorush Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 That's so cool! I love it when stuff like this is unearthed!
BCR Greg Posted March 1, 2014 Author Posted March 1, 2014 I am back from vacation.... Filling orders while supplies last. I have to limit them to 3 per customer, sorry.
oldskoolrulz Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Did I miss the boat on these? If so I'm extremely bummed If anyone received theirs and has an extra, will be willing to pay double the original asking price of $25, that's how bad I really want/need one!
BCR Greg Posted March 20, 2014 Author Posted March 20, 2014 Everyone that has responded will get taken care of...I have been SLAMMED with work and have not been able to get away from the bench.I will get to this soon, I promise.I will hire a qualified guitar repair tech THIS MINUTE if they apply.
BCR Greg Posted January 13, 2016 Author Posted January 13, 2016 Been a lot of changes at BCR, most good. Thanks for your patience.We now have a Reverb.com page and that facilitates sales like these.Here is the link to purchase the tips. They have been sitting in a box waiting for this moment.https://reverb.com/item/1550783-switchcraft-vintage-switch-tips-black-or-creme
Dana_V Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Ordered. Now I can finally have the correct toggle tip on my '78 Sunburst again (the original one broke years ago). Thanks Greg!
Roshark Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 I just ordered mine . Thank you Greg for putting these up for sale .
BCR Greg Posted January 14, 2016 Author Posted January 14, 2016 The Reverb page has a typo....These are all creme. I am having the wording corrected by a staff member. Sorry for any confusion.
oldskoolrulz Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Got mine a couple of days ago, looks great and fit perfectly 👍🏼 thanks Greg!
Kalessin Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 These switches do look MIGHTY fine. I grabbed two, just in case I ever buy a twin of the Artist here. While we're talking "Available on HFC!", those pickups are the also very fine Shlabotliks, by Josh Gravelin...
