Curious if anyone remembers who manufactured the bars with an available birthstone in the tip of the bar?

Perhaps BJS?

If so, anyone have a 7/8" diameter 10 string bar (standard Emmons bar size) with a 'non-colored' embedded birthstone they'd like to get rid of?

Thanks,
Ron

Dave -

If I remember correctly, the birthstone falling out was a common fault with this type BJS bar.

Please email me thru Forum and let's see if we can make a deal.

Thanks -

Think I have 4? bars with the stones... one fell out and I was going to glue it back in, but I lost it... IF, I remember my conversation with Butch correctly it seems like I could get another stone from him... but maybe I'm misremembering cause I never really pursued it.

BJS would replace the stone.
