Got deep pockets? lol. I don't know where you can find them, even if they exist anymore.

Re: Brass backplates
I snagged my brass control and toggle back plates on ebay before the official release of the RR LP.
They were about 30 shipped from the same seller.
I bought them once I realized they were on the RR LP, evidently before everyone else.
I bought them from seller "wammiworld" yet I just checked and he only has one item listed... I would definitely keep checking he said he had a huge box.
All of the parts Randy had on his Les Paul were Schaller replacements (switch ring, control plate, toggle plate) the actual gold toggle switch itself however is of unknown origin to me at this time.
