SX parts, used strings, and also some more unusual stuff

Here we have a set of used Fender tapewound strings. Have seen little use. Was installed on a normal Squier 4-on-a-side headstock, 34 inch scale, plenty of wraps on the posts. I like the tone of these strings, but they seem to have a little lower tension than most strings, which doesn't fit my style. $12.00 shipped to USA. SOLD!

SX parts, pretty much like new. Wiring harness, knobs, bridge, pickups. $18.00 shipped to USA. SOLD!

Old amplifier jewels, some smooth, some faceted. The green one is particularly cool. The ones with brackets appear to be unused. These are similar to a lot of old jewels used by Fender, Supro, etc. In fact, the red faceted jewels look identical to Fender parts. $20.00 shipped to USA for the whole lot. SOLD!

Antique Zenith brown swirl radio knobs with the lightning bolt "Z" on top. These fit standard USA pots with splined shafts. $6.00 the pair, shipped to USA.

Remember old Fender amps? And others...

They had a little pilot light on the faceplate, covered with a little colored piece of glass or plastic, so it would glow red, green, orange, blue, whatever color the jewel was. Most were red. Since most were faceted like a diamond, they were called jewels.

they are just liek the Lithium Crystals Mr. Scott used when he would say "I'm Given it all she's got captain".....and then the enterprise would shoot through the Galaxy like a Raped Ape!

Or....

Maybe they are just power light indicators....like on a lot of Fender amps.

DI-lithium crystals (yes, I'm a part-time geek), and thanks, both of you...now that I think of it, the blue power indicator on my Acoustic is called a jewel in the manual.
