kizanski Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Ok, here goes. Disclaimer: These admittedly poor descriptions are unfortunately the best I can do, my ability to remember dates and places (and facts) having diminished over the years. Some of this stuff has been tucked away in the parts bin for 15+years. Cleaning out the parts drawer, just because. All prices are for PayPal gift. Shipping included to the lower US 48. PayPal address is kiz AT hamerfanclub DOT COM Be sure to include your shipping address! Bigsby B3C $old Schaller/Gotoh Tuna/Tail Combo Also (I THINK) from that same mahogany Standard, this combo having been replaced with a wrapper bridge. Gotoh tail, Schaller tune-o-matic. Not bad condition. They definitely look used. Do NOT buy these for your new-looking guitar. All posts and bushings included. $50 Chrome Tune-O-Matic/Stop Tail Combo of Unknown Manufacture I'm getting a headache trying to remember what guitar these came from, so I'm going to stop. Not bad condition. They definitely look used, but chrome obviously hold up better than gold. Do NOT buy these for your new-looking guitar. All posts and bushings included. $40 Chrome Roller Bridge of German Manufacture Schaller? I don't know for sure. Came with a Newport I bought from @Camstone years ago. Intended for use with a Bigsby style trem. Great condition. Comes with height adjustment posts. $50

This and the hair in the Velcro on the bottom of the Proctavia pedal have to rank high up in the pantheon of my favorite guitar related pictures. Hahahahaha!!

kizanski Posted July 29, 2021 Author Posted July 29, 2021 Looks like all of the tuning machines are taken.
Jakeboy Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Did you find the roller bridge worked better with a Bigsby as opposed to a “normal” tuna?

kizanski Posted August 2, 2021 Author Posted August 2, 2021 Just came across a really nice set of Bullseye Grovers that I purchased a while back for some reason/guitar I no longer have. I'll snap some photos today. Or just buy the fucking things - you know what they look like. $85
kizanski Posted August 3, 2021 Author Posted August 3, 2021 BUMP Hey @Amplodyte - Check your PMs. I need your shipping address.
kizanski Posted August 3, 2021 Author Posted August 3, 2021 Ok - the three sets of tuning machines are now in the capable hands of the United States Lost Office. I know I talk a lot of shit about them, but it's only because they suck. Case in point: Look at the sign that they have posted at my local PO. So they're open from 8:30 to 5:00, but they're closed for an hour and forty-five minutes of that. For Lunch! They can't find a single warm body to watch the counter while the corpse who normally works there takes his hour and forty-five minute lunch. I work from home and I don't take a fucking hour and forty-five minute lunch. Then there's the obligatory dialogue which takes place after my transaction. PO: Will there be anything else? Me: Nope. That's it. PO: Any stamps or shipping materials? Me: What Did I Just Say? Honestly. This is the reason Norm treated Cliff, his best friend, like he was an idiot.

They don't take lunch on Saturday, so that's nice. On 8/1/2021 at 11:10 AM, atomicwash said: And I can't wait! So glad I asked. Thanks, Kiz! You and I need to get together, Danny. You have waaay too much cool shit not to share. Great score!

Unless, that is, you are conducting a study on the slow and inept and their utter inability to recognize or react to increased customer volume. The line will be literally out the door, and the ONE GUY at the counter will perform what is a dead ringer impersonation of a sloth, moving so slowly you can almost hardly notice. He would easily evade a hungry tyrannosaurus rex, because as we all know, a T-Rex's visual acuity is based on movement. Jurassic Park? No? Nobody? Anyway, yeah... they don't take lunch on Saturday.
