Lost Bridge Roller

Postby slidin' jim » Mon Nov 27, 2017 11:13 pm

Hi,
Lost a bridge roller off a Desert Rose pedal steel E9 3 & 4 and was wondering if anyone could help me find, buy or fabricate a replacement at all please?

It looks about 19mm diameter.

Are they all a standard size?

Are there any pedal steel parts suppliers in the UK?

Any help at all would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks in advance...

Jim

Jim, don’t know of anyone over here that supplies them, contact Chuck Back, the builder of Desert Rose, via the US Forum, I am sure he can send one to you.

The very same. His bars are good, he could probably knock one of those out for you quickly, and a couple of spares too.
