Decent Bridges from Ali express

[Andy40]

If you search for "Guitarfamily" on Aliexpress these guys supply decent bridges at a decent price. and Also korean made locking tuners are also good.

No real savings on the GOTOH Bridges, but the Korean made bridges, (similar quality to Wilkinson) I have found are quality and they have shipped to me relatively quickly for an Aliexpress seller. They have not yet muffed an order from me.

I have used, tele type bridges , tune-omatic with stop tail and bigblock tremolos are good as well.

There is some weird stuff on Aliexpress:





The bridges you mention look good, may be worth a look in a couple of projects time.

That's where Frankie hides his failures, those were pre-Igor experiments.

Andy, can you please put up a link to the locking tuners?

They weren’t failures, I just found a bunch of ways of how not to do it. Apologies to Thomas Edison.

These are intriguing..... Build your own body around one?

I quite like the look of 12 and 13, they look to be Piezo powered travel type guitars

Old thread, but on this recommendation I made a small order from GuitarFamily. Couple black nickel knobs and a toggle switch for the GS-2Q that's hopefully coming soon.

The knobs are really nice. Very hefty and feel a lot better than other cheap knobs I've gotten off Ebay. Got the 19mm*19mm*6mm since they appeared to be the highest quality based on the stock photos. The black nickel finish is similar to cosmo black, which is what I was going for.

Toggle switch came with one of the pins a little bent, very minor. Other than that it's pretty nice, feels better quality than the other toggle switch I have laying around. The nut matches the color of the knobs, and the threads and shaft are a dark bronze.

Pleased enough that I made another order with some more parts for that kit, most notably the black nickel TOM bridge+tailpiece and a jack plate, so hopefully those will be of comparable quality and match. Will probably be a while before they show up due the coronavirus shutting down most of China. Also ordered some Jin Ho/Wilkinson locking tuners in black nickel from a different well rated seller (Kaynes Musical Shopping Store) since GuitarFamily didn't have them, so hopefully those turn out as expected.
