Members Mercenary Posted October 10, 2012 Members Share Posted October 10, 2012 I recently bought a 1994 Made in Korea Epiphone Les Paul Custom similar to this: The gold on all the hardware is wearing away so I wanted to bring the guitar in to 2012 with a new bridge, tailpiece and tuning pegs and I was wondering if these would fit it: http://www.guitarfetish.com/SOLID-BRASS-STRAIGHT-Locking-Stop-Tailpeice-Hand-Polished_p_4225.html and http://www.guitarfetish.com/SOLID-BRASS-locking-Tuneomatic-bridge-locking-Saddles-ALL-BRASS_p_4217.html http://www.guitarfetish.com/Sperzel-Style-Locking-Tuners-3x3-GOLD_p_1174.html Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mercenary Posted October 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted October 10, 2012 id rather mine look brand new lol. The guitar was a little dirty/beat up when I got it so I just want to put some shine back in to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MatthewTKK Posted October 11, 2012 Members Share Posted October 11, 2012 You do realise brass will go brown very quickly. It won't look gold for more than a week or two.Also - the Korean Epiphones often have weird bridge post spacing and it can be very difficult to find a replacement bridge. I bought old stock from a discontinued line for mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
