Rosewood Switch Tip

[Egads]

Hey All. I just got something that needs a little (more) dressing up (shoes and purse style). Anyone have a trusted source for a rosewood switch tip (core blade, not toggle)? There are some on Reverb, which works, but I just wanted to see if anyone has a preference or any experience.

Crazyparts.de is known for that kind of thing. I have two of their ebony 3-way toggle tips on PRS Singlecuts that are top-flight. In the sake of full disclosure, a resident of Germany bought them and sent them to me, so I don't have direct experience of ordering their stuff for shipment to the US.

I have ordered from Crazyparts many times. You won’t be disappointed.

Thanks, guys. I had forgotten about them. I think the knobs I have might be Crazyparts from 10 years ago.

Anyone have any experience with Tone Ninja?

Sporthitech On the bay is the tone ninja dealer. I buy everything except pickup rings from them. The wood is well finished, especially the trem tips.

Thanks. I think they are the dealer on Reverb, too. Good to know you like the quality. What's the deal with the pup rings? Where do you go for those, and why not Tone Ninja? I bought a set from Stew Mac ten years ago, and was not impressed with the quality. Someone I know knows a guy who can get thre good stuff...

Got a Tone Ninja ebony one last year. It cracked almost immediately, hope you get better luck if you go that route. I could/should have glued it back but it went to the trash instead.

What do you need it for? Did you get a new guitar? I don’t see no NGD thread.

What? I didn't get a new guitar...

Except I have received some broken stuff from them they wouldn’t replace.

Oh crap! Really. That sucks.

Aw, man. That stinks, 11Top.

Same experience here. I just bought it as an experiment. Cracked right away.

 

[Egads]

Damn. You guys are scaring me! I might lose that $9.99 plus free shipping!

I wouldn't get one again. Just from a design/construction standpoint perspective it makes sense wood ones would easily crack.
