Here are 27 new brass 2-1/2" straight hooks and  5- 2-1/4" hooks and nuts with 8-32 thread that were made by Brooks Masten in his Portland, OR shop before the pandemic came and his supply chain for materials was ended.  There are two bent hooks and three straight hooks in the 2-1/4 length and three "B" style nutsthat will fit any of the hooks in this listing.  They have been antiqued and tumbled so they have a shiny "bronzed" finish.  I expect that someone who has a Masten banjo or a banjo by another maker who used Masten hardware will need these as spares or replacements.  I note, also, that at odebanjoparts.com that banjo ompany is making vintage bronzed brass parts with standard 8-32 thread, so compatible nuts are available.
