    I'm wondering if I should run a sweep with a prize for the entry which names the eventual winner. :)

    ^ name gone in.

    That's up to them. Good idea, though. I don't use them and want them to find someone who will

    On this OM-28, they give a zingy sound with Elixir Nano. 

    The look, though (gold finish/red inlay) doesn't suit me.. 

    But they're very hard-wearing so will last and last.

    ^ no, that's fine mate.

    @Tannin is another out by choice. No issue with it.

    16 of you, assuming that's how it stays until the draw.

    Good luck!

    Yes as you say, entirely up to them. But it would be nice to keep things going. It is very generous of you Mellish.

    Hi. Just for clarity, i wasn't asking to be added to the draw: merely commending you for your altruistic act.

    ^ no that's fine. Thank you. Do you wish me to take your name out?

    I'd suggest leaving it in - you could be the winner! But your choice :)

    There's something I'd like to address.

    There's talk of "generosity". No, the forum has been good to me. I've made friends here, at least I see them that way. 

    So I asked myself what I could do, to show my appreciation. 
    Ideally subscribe but I only have a Debit card and the system here can't use that. 

    So I came up with this. It isn't ideal as there can only be one winner when so many deserve it, but it's the best I can do. 

    Thank you.

    No thanks. Go ahead and take my name out. I'm more than happy with my current bridge pins and would rather these go to someone who really wants them.

    Still time to get your entry in.

    Weight-wise I'd say similar to brass but they don't add brightness IMO. There's still good bottom end.

    Any more?

    May I suggest that if the winner doesn't like them for some reason, they do the same thing and put them up again until they find a home?

    This is similar to the suggestion of our friend @choivert. ;

    No response.

    Possibly my fault for having to bring the draw date forward.and the winner may not know. 

    But there is a runner up if no response by. 2nd.April.

    Congratulations @bluecat ;
     so if you fancy a reissue of a guitar they never made in a colour they never used then it probably isn't too overpriced.

    @danishbacon thank you, I never use them, as I said, and I'd like them to go to someone who will.
