Hi Dave !i found them awhile back in a circular course store, they are rustfree lemon skweezers used at thee sets must be verry common in the UK , i used a couple they have a perfect shape for a tail piece ,they cost me maybee half a dollar at the time ,cant seem to find them anymore lately still have loads of lettesbowl parts (the ones whit Holes)  u use them as well , used a bottle capper as well, we have to get creatif for a good tail piece ! but your a master at that so get   Kracking Dave! and thanks for asking !

I like those babies. I’ve used a couple and have a few to use yet. I like your tailpiece on that bad boy. What’s it?

I've not tried one of those yet, but I like the sound of a low output single coil like that. They break up really nice.

Sounds good and gritty Andreas. This reminds me I got a 4 string pickup I need to use. :)
