So I just picked up a 20's Gibson BU1 Banjolele (I know...I know), but I need to get my hands on a new bridge and tail piece. You guys know what might work? I was told by a luthier friend that a banjo tail piece would work. Have any suggestions?

Again, please don't kill me for asking but I know I can always trust you guys on this stuff.

that sounds like a really cool instrument.

i looked up pictures of a Gibson Banjolele and it looks the same as a banjo bridge to me.

just double check the bridge width, height, and string spacing of the new bridge against what you currently have on there.

Think I found a supplier for the parts. Thanks for the help :)
