Hiya,

I got myself an old Deacon which seems to have had a bit of a hard life. Headstock broken and repaired, missing truss rod cover, damaged pickguard, missing knob, and a less-than sympathetic spray job!

I got an original 12-string neck in addition to the guitar too, so am keen to see if I can create a 12 string. To wit, I am seeking a 12-string bridge for it. I bought a 12-string bridge which I think came off a Viper but they're not the same type at all.

Does anyone know where I might source parts?

Thanks

Are you talking about the Bridge posts being different?
The one piece metal bridges use a different post and are available.
