The British Steelies Society

It is a beautiful sunshiny day and I made a lot of inox parts for my second pedalsteel .

But ...
I don't know the English word for the fiber or plastic hexagonal tuningthings on the right side of the steelguitar, but I need about 45 of these things with the measures of about 5 mm wide and a hole of about 2 0r 2,25 mm diameter.
Anyone who has a good advice where to get/buy/order them, I will be very grateful!

Thank you and keep practicing/playing.

What length do you need them to be Thijs!? ...... Bob

Hi Bob
That was a quick answer!
Minimum length 30mm and maximum 50mm. The best length for this steelguitar is 45-50mm.
But 30mm will do, I assume.
I just counted how many I need and 40 of these tuningthings will do, then I have some spare.

Regards
Thijs

No problem, I'll email you for your address!

Glad to hear they arrived safely....take up all the slack at the other end, these only need a few turns once in place (sorry if I appear to be stating the obvious) but I have had to sort out half a dozen players whose guitars were locked up because of overcranked nylons! unlike the wife these once don't squeal when they're too tight!
