Hello everyone! I have put up a bunch of tuner button and bridge/end pin sets up in the classifieds. Most are made from woods not readily available as buttons or pins. Please take a look. Here is a shot of a black and white ebony set I am fixing up for a new guitar of mine.

I've gotten two sets of tuner buttons from Burton (so far). They are beautifully and precisely made. I also got to see this set of black and white ebony buttons and pins in Burton's shop last Sunday. If he had turned his back, they might have found themselves in my pocket (now, I'm not a thief, but, when the temptation is strong enough, even a good man can go wrong).

Thanks guys! I am very happy with them. It is exciting to be able to customize a little bit further. I made a little photobucket page with the method I am using to make them. It looks like Chris the tute-man and I are overlapping a little. Our methods differ some but both look like good ways to go. Here is the link (click on the photos for a description of what is being shown):

I am very open to trades also for the buttons and pins in the classifieds,
Here is the link to the Classifieds listing:

what, no tutorial on making bridge pins?

seriously, i wish that looked easier because those tuner buttons and bridge pins look stunning. the process isnt terribly difficult i suppose, but getting set up the first time around took some effort im guessing.

great job burton and thanks for sharing your method.
