This is wrecking my head. The pegs on my acoustic guitar are utterly naffed, they're in pieces. So I can't change strings until I get new pegs, but I have no idea where to get them. Local guitar shop on the Isle of Man is pathetic and my Google-Fu is weak.

Any links/etc appreciated.

I got some from here a while ago but you might want to look into what kind (material) would sound best for you guitar and what size would fit before you buy any. I'm guessing you had plastic ones or something before.

That site's very reliable in my experience, but you could probably get pins/pegs cheaper/better elsewhere if you wanted to look.

Yeah, I stole it.

before you jump the gun, take a look at solid brass bridge pins. I changed all of my acoustic guitars over to brass pins and love it.

I went a bit lush.

Inlaid Paua

I've been long overdue doing something nice for my acoustic, really.

I think that the right decision was made. Well played, Ninjaman.
