I have a 1954 M-75 Aristocrat arriving this week that needs A LOT of work to get it back up and playing. I am in the process of pulling together items I will need for this task. One of the items I need is the metal feet under the rosewood bridge. I will keep my eyes out for an original set but I am not holding my breath. I know I could use the Newark Street reissue feet but I would prefer ones more vintage correct with 6-32 post and such.
I would like to make a set to match the originals. Does anybody have a 1950’s Aristocrat with the original bridge feet in which they can take detailed photos and measurements (Diameter, height, etc..) of the base (without the thumbwheel)? Also, what is the diameter of the original thumbwheels? All of the photos I can find online of the bridge feet have the thumbwheels screwed on preventing a good view of the base.
Thanks in advance for any help!
