Hi guys,

I've been making some parts for my own use and if there is any interest I would be glad to supply the group. The truss rod covers are the two and three hole Musician and brass Studio. They are made from brass using a cold metal casting process and originals as models. I think they look great. The toggle switch washers and SG1 grips are made from a flexible rubber that took me quite awhile to get just right. The washers are available in black and white. If you are interested send me a private message and I'll respond. The picture of the SG-I grip has the repro on the knob and the one I replaced next to it.

Andy

Hi guys,
I've had several requests for a brass Artist truss rod cover reproduction. Unfortunately I don't have a model to make a mold from. The process is completely non-destructive and if anyone can help out the group I would be happy to return the original, unharmed, plus a free reproduction. Just drop me a note.

Thanks,

Andy

Hi Bob,
The stuff I'm making is molded and the Artist you are looking for is engraved but I'll see what I can do.

Thanx so much Andy.
I don't know why one trc on my ar1200 says "artist" and the other doesn't.
I doubt that's the way it was issued but...
does anyone know for sure?
Is it issued that way ('83 ar1200av) or...
should both trc's say "artist"?
