Hey guys,
First post ever here. Does anyone know where to get parts for a Wilcox steel guitar? I just bought the guitar recently on Craigslist and I need a couple of pull rods and the little screws to attatch the pull rods to the bell cranks for my RKR which currently isn't hooked up. Also a few new nylon tuning nuts. I'm a longtime reader of the forum, but just recently joined. Any help would be appreciated.

I purchased a SD10 from Chet several yrs. ago he built his guitars in his garage and made his pedal rods him self not sure about his pull rods.

Thanks, Wesley.
Yeah, I read about the guitars here on the forum. There's no name on the guitar but I'm pretty positive that it's a Wilcox, because all the parts look exactly like one that a friend has, and a local guys who buys and sells steels said he also thinks that's what it is. Would you or anyone on here maybe know at least what diameter pull rod I would need, and what length for lower on RKR? Is there somewhere online I could order something comparable?
Thanks!

Get a caliper (20$) use it to get the rod diameter, then buy some Stainless Steel welding rod of the appropriate size and cut ,and thread it ,you're good to go.If you don't want a caliper ,then just take a rod to your local welding supply and have them match it.
