I need a gold stop tailpiece w/ studs, and the inserts and studs for a TOM bridge in gold. Patina is desired to match the rest of the 1973 Les Paul Custom. I mean real patina, not the kind applied with steel wool and muriatic acid. Help me out here, guys - I don't want to resort to Squeebay.... The client is prepared to pay reasonably.

Well, the Custom is sold to a new owner - who doesn't care about the vintage parts so much and just having the thing together. Between some new gold parts, stock gold parts, and chrome parts from the junk box I have it strung and playing like butter. The old TOM is toast, so it needs upgrading - but for now, all is sweet.
