Default Lost a CA OX bridge pins

While I was trying to change my strings, the high E snapped android I lost the bridge pin. Tore my kitchen apart but couldn't find it. We had been having painting done and could be anywhere. Any suggestions for replacement pins. Very grateful for help.

Modern bridge pins only really come in two sizes 3-degree and 5-degree.

Almost everyone except Martin (and folks trying to copy Martin) use standard 3-degree pins.

I don't have a CA instrument, so I can't actually verify for you.

You could try emailing Peavey: [email protected], I'm sure they could tell you exactly what pins they are. If I were you though I would probably go ahead and order a set of black tusq pins. They have a guide on their website to help you out. Just measure your old pins and compare: https://graphtech.com/collections/tu...ns-traditional

Contact Michael Stone at McNichols. He knows a lot about CAs and CF guitars in general and specializes in saddles, bridge pins and nuts. Great guy, he’ll help you.
