Supplier for a 12 string Ric bridge

Post by harvey49 »

G'Day to Vibrola forum,
Have a special request for help, after waiting for a considerable time I finally got a reply to an email re supply and cost for a genuine Ric 12 saddle bridge, from the Australian importers of Ric gear.

FAR too expensive!!!!!!! So can anyone here recommend an outlet that is is 100% reliable in sending goods internationally and competitive with their pricing and maybe uses 'PayPal'?

Hoping someone out there can assist

I don't know that any U.S. RIC distributer will export parts for you but you might try Ed Roman in Las Vegas,NV. While he might not sell a RIC 12 saddle bridge to you he does have a nice 12 saddle bridge made for Ric's. It appears to be machined from chrome plated brass and very nicely made.

G'Day Readers of Ric Forum,
Still chasing info on a genuine 12 saddle Ric bridge. Can I get some feedback on what the 'real price' for one of these is? Of the five places I've tried, via email, all have quoted increased prices to those shown on their web sites, which really didn't matter as they have told me they can't post to Australia anyway!!! Does anyone have an alternative, if the deal with Michael or Mark falls through?

You could always look on eBay 'till you find the right part in good condition at a fair price.
I'm sure there's some every once in awhile...
I don't look for 12 saddle bridges so I couldn't tell you much on how rare they are or its eBay value.
