T-bird/Embassy hand rest and bridge cover
« on: January 08, 2014, 08:35:15 AM »
Wouldn't be about time that someone with the right connections started making these? Cause this price is as close as one can get to ridiculousness. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1960s-Gibson-Thunderbird-Cover-Plates-Vintage-TBird-/271358052804

Steve at ThunderBucker Ranch is making them.  They're exact copies of a pair of mine.





Solid nickel silver.  He does custom widths as well.  Epis, Bicentennials and 60s all have different center section widths.  Ships worldwide.

Contact him here:

We're also working on a replacement Bridge and Tailpiece for 3 points.

I'm just thankful Carlo did the decent and tasteful thing with reflective surfaces... ;)
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
