I can't tell you how long I have been looking for an unplated brass bridge (harmonica style) for my guitar build. I know they were made in the 70's. I have written to manufacturers asking if I could get an unplated one and NEVER hear back.

ANY idea where I can find one? Please help me stop my search!!! I am doing my guitar with a lot of brass trim and want this bridge to complete the look.

THANKS!

I don't need a tailpiece. I need a bridge like the ones on the mid to late 70's SG Customs.

Sorry about that, was tired.
If you don't mind doing a little work for it, here is one that the gold plate is almost off of. It looks to be brass underneath. Im sure a quick email to the seller would confirm one way or the other.
