| I have an Odd-Ball Breadwinner in hi-gloss black with a guard that has shatterd due to a big fall and am looking for a replacement in black with a white edge as pictured.
Miles had one at one point but unfortunatly I waited too long....any help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

Location: Upper Left USA | If you need stock check with Miles on this board at miles@aol.com or look Here at Sunny Ledges which is the Family Store.
(Edit: you did check with Miles, oh.)
I didn't see a BW in black with smaller HBs but Miles may have something.
I like to remake the PG's and put veneer on them like this one.
There's more in the gallery.
Welcome to the board. |

Location: Marlton, NJ | Rolo - I may have one that I bought from Miles. I'll have to check if it's the same one. It may be a long while before I actually use it, so why let it go to waste? I'll check tomorrow and let you know.

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | Mike, I'm pretty sure it's the one he's looking for.
I plan on having some more available very soon, probably by time you need one again. |

| Hi Mike,
My first message has a link at the bottom with a photo of the shape of my guard. It is considerably shorter than a breadwinner guard above the pickups.
I had it on my Xmas List but unfortunetly it was already sold.
Thanx in advance Mike.

| Yes it is gloss black & all original finish.
It's an odd one. I have never seen a gloss one.
Any additional info would be appreciated
the serial# is E 19179
It had a nasty fall at one point that snapped the headstock. So I'm also looking to replace the neck at some point, although the chalenge will be finding a gloss black neck.

Location: GA USA | The gloss blacks are rare. I've seen two, mine and the (other) one Samova used to own. |
