I have a little OFC project going and I need a some help.
To use Al's favorite line.... "I can't talk about it yet"
But here is what I need.
1) A set of gold tuners for a slothead. Two screw style.
2) A 1-3/4" nut.
3) An ebony bridge & saddle.
4) A truss rod cover.
Now....these don't need to be new. The tuners can be well used. Surplus... salvaged parts... anything will do.
Sorry to make it such a mystery. You'll know why when I'm done.

Brad, sounds like you got "the tube" ??? and from questions above I guess I know which one you're gonna use. My lips are sealed.

Coconuts contain palm oil. Brad, are you going to use that to oil the fretboard?

Sorry Brad I couldn't resist. I't must be my juvenile sense of humor. My two younger sons Greg 10 and Christopher 7 have just learned how to make armpit farts. They have been doing this from the moment they finish their homework, sometimes during dinner, all the way up to bedtime. I should have them do this when I play my guitars. It will probably be an improvement.

The slot head tuners, these the on a plate kind or the separate ones? 1 3/4 nut you'll probably have to make from some nut stock or a piece of bone. That's what they do at the factory when they have a 1 3/4 order.
