        parts? i dont think anybody is making parts for conns anymore. if you need a neck, Gloger-handkraft supposedly makes great necks, but never trying one i really cant comment on quality. any other parts would have to be custom-made, and there arent many people willing to do that. you could find another conn from thats the same model thats kinda beat-up so its cheap and strip it for parts,

          i think they are fairly common, but im not too aware of availability of repair parts. the springs might be a bit of a problem if you want the same type of springs that were on it originally. im not sure if anyone makes the needle-point springs anymore. i do know that at least one person is making the grub screws, though i dont know who.

          try Ferrees, they do provide parts to non-technician..or try your friendly neighborhood repairman..I'm sure he could use your business, and he probably know what he's doing.
