Is anyone still producing replacement parts for old Oahus? Just picked up a nice guitar everything was there but the bridge?

That will probably be a difficult item to find (not already attached to another Oahu lap steel). Post a photo of what you're looking for and we may be able to offer suggestions on replacements.

Maybe check with Gold Tone? They make a pretty close copy of the Tonemasters from around that time period. I believe they sell parts on request.

Thanks everyone. I contacted Gold Tone on line and they quickly responded saying they had the bridge I needed as well as many other parts that will match my Oahu Tonemaster. Should arrive tomorrow and I can't wait to get the guitar set up with new strings. Thanks again!
