Newly Handmade Fiber Needle

by watanabehi » Mon Oct 10, 2011 10:12 pm

Hi everybody,

I have been listening to my EMG Large X Model and Credenza and have tried different needles.
I came across very old Japanese smoked bamboo which are 100-200 years of age. I made fiber needles out of it, the result of which is very impressive. I have been selling those needles on eBay. The reputation of the needle is very good, some of the buyers have bought them several times. If you are interested in them please go to eBay.com and look up "hmv203".

The price for 50 needles range from $35-45 USD.

Thank you for your business,

Hideki Watanabe.

Thank you for buying those hand-made fiber needles and giving me great feedbacks. Recently I made New fiber needles using US-Grown bamboo. The result is as good as Original Victrola's fiber needles. I tested them many times.They are pretty dry and hardy. They are on Ebay, too. If you are interested, please take a look at the site. Thank you.
