tune-o-matic bridge and tailpiece price

[MusicFrenzy]

Hi i would like to change the tune-o-matic bridge and tailpiece set on my epiphone 1958 korina explorer, what brands are available for it, the pricing can anyone advise me on the specs, is the radius 12 or 14? I would also like to know where i can get this done and the rough cost?

radius you have to find someone with a radius block to check for you.

for the parts, you can check with www.allparts.com . pricing check with Guitar Connection.

curiosity sake, why do you want to change those parts?

I've heard very good things about Faber parts. You can find them at TYMC but better bring your guitar over to make sure of the dimensions you need for your guitar.

hi thank you very much relinquish69 and edgie

and changing them as they have oxidized.

get the faber pieces from TYMC, very good prices and good stuff!

you can use autosol / brasso to polish them. no reason to change hardware because of oxidation. plus, they are cheaper than whatever parts you can find haha.
