Someone from the board here (whose e-mail bounces unfortunately) contacted me asking if we had a certain part and is it possible to bypass the RIC-Outlet to get it.

This is something we discussed early on and we determined that to do something like that 1) defeated the purpose of having a "store" like this and 2) isn't fair to everyone else who might be looking for that particular part.

However, such requests might be accommodated- assuming it's something we actually have- by putting them up on eBay and letting the auction run its course. That way no one can say they didn't have a fair chance to get that difficult-to-find part.

To that someone, be advised that a 12 saddle guitar bridge using 6 string saddles works perfectly for your purposes. If you're looking for the original vintage part, I do have one but only one, and the outlet is not intended to run our stock to zero. Perhaps another one will show up . . .

Mr. Hall,
will you be shipping to Canada? Right now, when I login through ebay.ca, I cannot see anything for sale. Probably because of the 'Ships to: United States' thing.

I'm looking forward to see what treasures you dig up!

Welcome, Pierre. In the related thread in the For Sale section, I noted that there are a number of us USA Forumites that would gladly help our international brethren out by acting as a go-between.

How do we go about making a request?
