Wanted Bridge and string retainer Westone Quantum
Hi all, newbie here, I just bought a bare Westone Quantum and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction towards a bridge and a string retainer or compatible items. Im UK based if that helps. Cheers Jeff

Re: Wanted Bridge and string retainer Westone Quantum
Try this for size, it's as near as I've ever seen on Ebay. Never seen any Quantum or Rail parts on Ebay.
