    Converted my Strat (S-style) to a headless guitar…

    I searched online high and low, couldn’t find a tutorial. Just ordered the bridge and nut hardware, then measured twice and cut once. 😎

    Surprisingly well, no issue with micro adjustments in tuning too.

    Thank you, and I would love a HN3! I spent $58 for the bridge and nut piece to convert this guitar, unfortunately don’t have $600 to get a Hils guitar.

    Can’t find threaded inserts…help?

    I’m looking for stainless 8-32 inserts for a maple neck, the EZ-Lok knife model seems to work great for a lot of people. I live in Guam (USA), so shipping to me would be through USPS priority mail (which is the same rates as shipping to Hawaii).

    Trying to find some stainless steel 8-32 threaded inserts to install in a neck, but I can’t seem to find any online. Everything I’ve searched is either out of stock or only comes in packs of 100. Can someone help please, just need 4 of them.
