dussenberg bender

Post by Keith Aiken »

i purchased a lap steel with a dussenberg bender on ebay. this was some time ago. i didn't know anything about these & still don't know much. but i think i need front bender adjustment screws & springs. also probably need lever spring to go under the arm to lower a note. don't see any of that listed on the website. i emailed them but no response. anyone got a clue how to get an alternative to the factory parts?

You should be able to tell from the photos on that page if you're missing any parts.
I don't think you'd need springs unless you're planning to lower any strings.

yes thanks. that picture was what told me i needed parts. since dusenberg doesn't seem to be interested in helping me, i'll have to figure out something.
