Ok you guys....I need help here on finding the right NOS replacement bridge and stop bar for a VLP510.
I mentioned before, I was going to get one. I did but it came nekkid
no bridge or stop bar hardware at all.
I have seen go-toe. I have seen japa knees ones.
I have seen USA ones.
To my understanding the dimensions on our favorite Uncle's guitars were made slightly different for obvious patent or copy right infringement.
SSSOoooo which aftermarket company makes the right one??
The tunamatic bridge pin spacing on all my vantage guitars (FV-575, 790 Demon, and now the newly acquired VLP-510) all seem to be just ever so bit wider than the usual suspects from the big name LP guitar makers.
Also the pin diam is like .040 inches bigger than the big name LP guitar makers.
WHAT do I do?
ream out the holes on the bridge?
refill, relocate and re-drill the post holes in the body (that would truly be waaaayyyyy too much for me)
OR is there a magical place in matty-land that has NOS drop-in direct fit replacement parts somewhere on a shelf in a store, or in a box and I haven't knocked on the right door yet and ask to come in for a look..?
Any suggestions or direction or even just your thoughts on this would be appreciated...
BTW if This post belongs in another section , my apologies up front, but I thought I could run this by the select guru's here associated with the senior members first.
Thanks,
Grams.
