The Rickenbacker Accent vibrato seems to be a hot commodity these days.  You can't buy one for love or money.

Well, we don't want your love, but we will take your money.  Because we've now got a complete replacement for the Accent tailpiece.

Our vibrato is designed to vintage specs (and is interchangeable with either new or old units), but engineered to be stronger than the originals:

• Our comb uses a solid steel pivot instead of the weaker brass pivot on the old pieces. Then, we micro-weld it into place. It's not breaking, it's not popping out.
• Our springs are also made to vintage specs: they're flatter than the current springs, giving you a better break angle across the bridge saddles. And again, they've been re-engineered to be stronger than the originals.
• Our arms are also like the old ones: longer, and with a more rounded tip. And -- again -- they're stronger: we use a steel rather than brass ring.
  

Please note: We have two different tailpieces available with the vibrato.  The standard tailpiece is a direct replacement for the stock Accent vibrato.  That means that the mounting hole in the tailpiece is positioned to be consistent with the strap bolt on a guitar which originally had an Accent installed.  You can use this to replace a broken or missing Accent or in new construction.  We also have an R/trapeze adapter tailpiece.  This is identical to the standard tailpiece, except that the mounting hole is positioned higher to account for the higher strap bolt position of the R and trapeze brackets.  You can make your choice in the pulldown menu.

And don't forget: we also offer a full range of individual replacement parts for the Accent vibrato: tailpiece, spring, comb, arm, and screw.
