where to find schaller bass hardware

[chuckocaster]

that is what i am assuming is on this bass http://www.duesenbergusa.com/DSBblack_lg.html

i've been thinking for awhile now of building a semi hollow fretless bass and saw the bass above as i was searching around. i really love the trapeze tailpiece and tom type bridge combo. maybe i should just search ebay to find something like it?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

keep rockin' ya'll!

I'll poke around in my parts boxes tomorrow...I think I've got some similar stuff off of an old Epiphone hollowbody in there somewhere. It's not as nice as the new Schaller stuff, but you're welcome to it if I still have it. I may have let it go when I sold off a bunch of my old stuff a while back, but I can't remember.

thanks alot man! i've been looking on the bay as of late for weirdo parts off old hollow basses. couldn't really find much but i'm a real dumbass with this compooter stuff. shoot me an email if you find that stuff. and that'll cool if it is epiphone stuff cause the neck is an old epiphone and i'm going to use my old gibson recording bass pup on it too.

thanks again. buttrock_king@yahoo.com

If I do still have it, it will match the set up on this bass:

The only difference is, the bridge is missing it's wooden base...but you're a handy guy, and you'd have to do some carving to match your bass top anyway.

Actually, looking at that again, my tailpiece was nicer. It had an insert in the trapeze. Hopefully, it's out in my shop somewhere. I'll let you know sometime tomorrow afternoon.
