Pkomor Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) For a project that is evolving in he build diary's section , i need 6 machine heads. Does anyone have some spare, i would even live with Guitar tuners if that's what you have got! also needed for the project are a volume pot, jack socket and some old flat-wound strings... if you can help me out I'd greatly appreciate it! Edit: now need 6 machine heads... Edited July 11, 2008 by Pkomor
Mr. Foxen Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Probably got all of the above, except a reliable volume pot laying about. Need a parts sorting session as I am supposed to be posting out to somone else, but the unexpected gig booking killed all my meagre spare time.
escholl Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 gaaa i wish i'd known...got a spare jack laying around, and probably a pot too, would have thrown it in this morning
