Location: Los Angeles | Hello, I am a new poster and I really need help in finding replacement parts for an old Ovation 1619.
Here are the parts I need:
1. TUSQ Saddle
2. TUSQ Nut
3. Headstock (original uses Gold with Pearl knobs)
I am in Los Angeles but would rather order the parts online or by phone if there is no online store.
Can anyone please help me?
Thank you very much!
Regards

Location: Carle Place, NY | You can get a replacement nut from the Ovation factory. Send an email to Kim Keller at kkeller-kmc@Kaman.com.
The saddle is part of the piezo pick-up and has to be replaced as a unit. Kim can probably help you with that too.
What is a "headstock" replacement? |

I meant "machine heads"/tuners not the entire headstock.

Location: Carle Place, NY | If I were replacing all 6 tuners I'd go for the Grover Locking Tuners .
The only problem is that the mounting screw holes won't line up so you'll see the old holes after you put the new tuners on. The Govers are 18:1 ratio, so they're very accurate. |
