Anyone know where I could find rollers for a nut or bridge? I'm looking at making a roller nut and bridge for a lap steel, but can't find anywhere to buy the rollers.
I like ehdwuld's idea, but I guess you could try contacting some manufacturers of roller bridges & nuts to see if you could buy parts. Only other thing I can think of is to start checking out luthier sites.
Um, roller nuts I know of one place and they may be adaptable, depends on nut dimensions and string spacing. http://www.abm-guitarpartsshop.com/Accessories/Nuts/Roller-Nuts:::19_156_157.html
I make no promises and the price is in euros. I live sin the US, but I discovered this website a while back. Thought this could be uses for a locking tremolo without a locking nut if I get locking tuners, but it Should work. I've never bought these though.
