INCREDIBLE
FIND, AS
SHOWN,
Offered here is one,  GIBSON KALAMAZOO FACTORY ORIGINAL ISSUE TRUSS ROD
COVER, IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN THIS CONDITION, NO REPAIRS, EVERYTHING IS
STOCK OFF A DAMAGED '59
INSTRUMENT, ....well up until last year no one had accurately
duplicated the 'rolled' plastic but that has changed, so the only other
simple way to authenticate a genuine Gibson '50s truss rod cover is by
the small "Black Tails" we show that appear at the bottom of the bell
where it flanges outward to a sharp point. The "Black Tails" are unique
to vintage Gibson truss rod covers due to the cut pattern.  Soon this
will likely also be duplicated and you will never know if your luthier
or vintage dealer is swapping out your parts and selling them off on
ebay under an assumed name and location, so get this one while you can
be assured of it's authenticity. We are happy to say that we were the
first here on ebay to point out and name the "Black Tails", no doubt it
will become another of our vintage buzz phrases, Cheers to all, and
happy to help the greater cause.      Please see our other genuine '59
parts while they last. If you have
an expensive $200,000.00 Burst or any number of "McCarty Era" Gibson
guitars, then you need this to
complete the package. These do not grow on trees so get it while you
can, we've been sitting on these spares for decades, once they sell,
there's no more so good luck to the wise winner. It's ready for that
investment restoration on pretty much any model or an uber cool custom
mod on anything. All the hardware works great,
nothing stripped, no issues, just put it on and see, hear and feel the
difference that real factory 40 or 50+ year old vintage quality can
make. These sell
for far more at guitar shows if you can find one so act now and get a
great deal.
Also we know how weird digital pictures can get so we've added regular
pics and flash pics so you can accurately judge the patina and
appreciate just how clean and perfect looking these would be on any
vintage, reissue or custom guitar. A great hard to find item and
excellent
natural vintage patina for restorations. We're not responsible for
things we may have overlooked so ask questions early, we do not answer
during the last 48 hours of the auction. Act now. Standard 7 day
auction, so you have plenty of time to have your payment in place.
Immediate Paypal payment required. Happy bidding. PS - order now, 2010
prices will only go up as of the
first vintage guitar show in January, as time marches on, it all gets
more rare, more expensive and harder to find so act now and get a deal
while it lasts. Cheers.      
Please

Shipping
determined

by winner's Paypal verified location.Small parts will leave
for most con-Canada by post approx $12.80 and con-US locations
Expedited Service with full tracking and insurance at approx $19.80
PLUS FINAL VALUE INSURANCE (Florida, New York and all con-US east coast
destinations may be more while we in North America are in an unstable
market due to shifting gas prices, so if the rates change, please be
understanding - we don't set the rates - you can always check the rates
yourself on-line anytime). All other International bidders shipping costs will vary depending on location. The first $100.00 of insurance is generally
included, full value insurance is mandatory.  These are average rates
and could be either slightly higher or lower depending on winner's
final Paypal verified location and auction end insured value, we refund
overages over $5.00 and vice versa for final source rates which are
solely in the control of the shipping carriers, obviously. We do not
profit from shipping, the shipping carriers do that. We only use a
service that provides full insurance coverage and delivery confirmation
to protect the seller and buyer equally. Final rates calculated at
source point of drop-off will prevail. We do not re-negotiate this
after the auction is over, this is part of the sales contract you are
agreeing to, if not, don't bid.

The package (for this item)
will be approx 5.52 x 5.52 x 5.52 inches under 2 pounds, (carrier used
and service used at our discretion, depending on item size, shape,
composition, destination, value etc...), please see www.canadapost.com
for rates verification, so International bidders can calculate these
rates themselves before bidding, make sure to add delivery confirmation
and add appropriate insurance in your calculations on their website
before you bid. Please also remember when calculating a rate, put our
address info in as the sender and your address info as the receiver to
get a more accurate quote, otherwise you will get a reverse quote which
may not be the same. Due diligence is your own responsibility. Normally
small items only takes two days to get handed to US Customs and USPS,
after which, it's their baby. Customs delays are outside exceptions and
do not happen often, but they do happen, be forewarned, so please
kindly don't blame us. Customs delays may be due to terrorist alerts at
any given border that may not be public knowledge due to security
reasons. We do our job and always hand the item to professional
packers/shippers/carriers when we receive final  payment clearance at
our institution, we also send notification of shipments to all buyers
with tracking numbers since there has been quite a lot of internal
theft these days. This is one of the reasons we insist on shipping only
using a tracking service which requires delivery confirmation and
provides full insurance, it's for your protection of your investment.
That's why we also insist on no exceptions to these buyer obligations.
That way it pretty well eliminates those nasty possibility, insuring
you get your goods. So when it comes time for feedback, please don't
dump on us for a job we didn't do. We are not responsible for shipping,
delivery or Customs delays, and we don't make the rates, they do. We
are the seller and handler of the goods - sometimes we also pack and
that's it, we do not deliver goods to a buyer, that would be
impossible, the shipping company does all that so please complain to
them for the jobs they do or don't do. If you are experiencing a delay,
please contact us, we always follow up on delayed shipments and track
&/or exert pressure from our end whenever possible, we are also
here to make sure you get what you paid for, that's why our feedback is
great. US made goods returning to original country of manufacture will
be marked so and should be duty free, but check. Folks, we do apologize
for all this. We note these extreme exceptions for full disclosure
reasons and not to alarm anyone. We do our job and if you do yours,
usually an auction goes quite smoothly, so please feel free and
comfortable in this knowledge. Many thanks and happy bidding.

suspicious bidders. All inappropriate behaviour will be reported to ebay
