        : Pickguard, control panel, case needed ASAP.
        I am selling a 1971 Gibson SG250 Guitar with an Original Hard Shell Case. It is a rare model due to a short production run since it was introduced in mid-1971 and was manufactured for only six months. It was the top-of-the-line of the SG100, SG200 & SG250 Series. Please check out my ebay Auction ad for Item Number 270025609506 if you are interested. The auction ends on 9/11/06 at about 9PM Eastern Standard Time. I have the Yellow Carbon Copy Type of Sales Receipt from when I purchased the guitar used indicating that the guitar is a Gibson SG250 model. Thanks for your time and best regards,

    I love this old guitar! Can anyone help me find parts? Pickups and knobs? Maybe a pickguard? I know this is a tall order but any help would be appreciated. Thanks

      Try contacting rodger fritz. He reissues Kay 161 reproduction models (korea), as well as custom shop models (usa). He sells repro 161 pickups. He rewound my 161 pu. Hope this helps.

    1. Re: Original Gibson EB-0 parts
      lucky

      I am looking at parting out my 1965 EB-0. It would be a gem except for the fact that some knucklehead replaced the pickup with an EMG, and routed out the body cavity to make it fit. The remaining parts are in very good condition, especially the bridge and tuners. The electronics, except for the pickup, appear to be in good shape as well. It plays like a dream, but with the EMG it doesn’t have that muddy sound we all love. Which parts might you be interested in?

  14. 59 P Bass parts needed
    Jay Victor

    I’m looking for some parts to revive a 59 Precision Bass that was refinished by hillbillies, parts swapped, & otherwise degraded. I would like to restore it to as much of it’s former dignity as possible. A Master Builder from the Fender Custom Shop is going to refinish & relic the paint job for me. It now has a (you can laugh) brush applied white paint job on it.

    I need:

    Suitable old anodized pick guard & correct mounting screws. (the existing ones are slotted round head!!!)
    Suitably old thumb rest & mounting screws.
    59, 58, or maybe 57 date code Stackpole pots. 250K, solid shaft. Maybe same as Tele..
    Tone Cap for pots.

    This will, no doubt, be a lifelong quest, so even if you do not have, please let me know if any of this ever does turn up. Thanks.
