surfpup Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I tried a set of these Raw Vintage springs in one of mine. It did increase the volume and sustain acoustically. $25 http://www.rawvintage.com/eng/item_springs.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RevDavidLee Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 Man I'm glad I don't have to make that decision. If I needed springs I would get the cheaper ones - it just amazes me how folks try to hype up innocuous parts to charge excesive amounts for something just because it's old. I find it somewhat goofy especially in this case Maybe I'm missing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
