Are these Dean USA parts available?

Where would you go to find these parts?

For a Telecaster, yes, of course!

I was particularly attracted to the finish on these special parts. I don't care for the usual Gibson fare, actually. Now, if there's a Gibson application of these handsome stainless parts or another manufacturer (as opposed to the general type of bridge concept in chrome plate) you betcha I am interested.

Thanks.

Brushed stainless, very handsome.

What, have I said too many mean things about Dean guitars or something? :^*

That's exactly what I was thinking. It doesn't look too complicated.
I've done somthing very similar myself in aluminum with nothing more than a drill press and a file.
