Hi Dave, just wanted to let you know that I have received the parts today and I just
finished installing everything on this old guitar.... Brought it right back to life!!! That
output jack 'poker chip' looks absolutely fantastic. I decided to leave the washer out and
carefully tighten the jack nut against the washer which you made. Looks great!!! The
truss cover fit perfect and so did the tremolo cover. The brushed aluminum looks classy
and gives that 'rich look' even after they will age for a bit. Thank you very much for
everything. -Fred
Thanks!!!!! Love it! It’s awesome! -Frederick H

Testimonial:
I was looking for some cool truss rod covers for a rare out-of-production Dean bass. I
couldn't find them anywhere. After scouring the web, I contacted Dave at FOTN. He was
on point every step of the way and was able to take my ideas and transform them into
very cool pieces to customize my instruments (I also commissioned a truss rod cover for
another guitar I had laying around). I sent him a crappy hand-traced template and a few
weeks later he sent me back two sick custom truss rod covers. One was a Shredder
helmet for a silver Schecter Diamond Series which magically transformed it into the Six-
Star Super Shredder and the other was an OMEGA symbol for the Dean thusly
becoming OMEGA Red (It's heavy AF). I couldn't be happier with the finished product
and would definitely recommend Dave's work as I know I'll be commissioning more
pieces from him in the future.Thanks, Dave! - Kale from Florida
Dave the rings arrived today and WOW! I am genuinely blown
away. They look good, sturdy and most of all they fit and do what
was needed. Thank you so. Is there somewhere I can sing your
praises?
"Have a....an.....a Univox Coily with odd sized pickup rings. Dave was
able to make a pair so I could use standard size pickups. Look great,
sturdy and best of all they work. Regular pickups in a ring that fits the
guitar. Killer - Thanks Dave, Larry W

Hi Dave, I bought an aluminum surround from you a while back for a DIY Rickenbacker-
style bass kit project. Just wanted to drop you a line and show you the final result. I
really think your surround is what ties the whole kit together. Thanks again for the great
work! Best, -ravi s
Jazz pickup Surrond for DIY Rickenbacker-style bass kit project
I just received my truss rod cover and all i can say is wow it is great.
I looked everywhere and yes there was places that would make them but they looked
low end to me i found fretsonthenet and Dave was great he talked with me about what i
wanted for about 1 month before i ordered it.the time frame was good for a custom
piece.
i got it and the fit was spot on it was not printed it was truly etched just as i wanted. Oh i
forgot to mention i tried to find one on line everywhere no one had one not even eBay or
Epiphone so it had to be custom made.
The price was great i thought it would be a lot more.All i can say if i need anything i will
be using fretsonthe net.Thanks so much Dave it looks amazing my favorite guitar is now
whole again.I believe if a company does a great job on something people should know
about this there are to many company that don't care about the customer but this one
does thanks again.
Ibanez AX120 White Pearloid Rings and TRC
Hello Dave....wanted to drop you a note to once again tell you what an outstanding job
you did on the pickup rings for my Keith Roscoe Century Plus 5 P/J! They fit as though
they came from Roscoe guitars as standard equipment.
I am in the process of changing the hardware to all black. This is the second time I've
contacted you about pickup rings and as in the first instance you hit the mark of
excellence perfectly. Working with you on dimensions, materials, etc couldn't be easier. I
have and will continue to recommend your services to anyone who needs parts for their
instrument. I've enclosed a couple of before and after images. Thanks again Dave for
the exceptional job you did for me.
Regards, Ron D-

FOTN Black Brushed Aluminum Anodized Rings
Beautiful work, Dave! Everything fit perfectly! Worth every penny, and the wait!
Oh, the aluminum rings did a great job of controlling the bulging pick guard also. So that
was a good call to change that material spec. It worked.
The Zoso truss rod cover looks great. Best Regards, Eric
Hi Dave!
Fantastic work again. Excellent craftsmanship.

Hi Dave, Just wanted to let you know I finally got the pickup rings installed and they
turned out beautifully. I’ve included a picture of the finished installation if you wish to use
it on your site - I can clean up the body and make a prettier picture without fingerprints
as well. Thanks! Ben U
PRS SE 7 string white pearloid pickup rings and TRC engraved
Dave, love the signature covers on my Taylor T5s. The glossy finish and white bevel
compliments the headstock finish and binding much better than the original dull black
matte finish of the original. I will send a pic or two next week on the
two, now dubbed the Egocentric 1 and Egocentric 2 : ) Excellent
work! Wayne H
Here it is, came out great! Thanks again, Wil.
Hello Dave, Sorry it took so long. It took bit longer to finish my Les Paul
as I ended up changing more parts than I first thought. Anyway, your
pickup rings are absolutely perfect and look amazing! You can find
images attached. Thank you once more. If I ever need custom made
plastic parts for my guitars, I know who to contact to. Br, -Jussi
Received the pickup rings. They fit perfectly. You will stay on my
list for future work. Cheers-

pickup rings, Studded strap from Franklin in TN, Chrome Toggle Switch Ring,
Railhammer Pickups with large poles.-Glenn
Hi Dave, I wanted to say thanks so much for the pick guard. It’s going to fit
like a charm.
The quality and craftsmanship of the pick guard is superb. I will make sure
to send a few photos once the guitar is rebuilt in a bout a month due to
clear coat curing.
Thanks again, - Steve
thank you VERY MUCH! -Ken Saunders

Dave,I wanted to send you this picture of the guitars I built using your
awesome pickup rings. They turned out great. On the red one, your
pickup ring covered a multitude of sins by the previous owner. Thanks
for your tidy work on these - they worked out great for me.
-Hunter Harrison
Just received my ring. Looks very nice, and fits like a glove. I appreciate the quality and
quick turnaround time. I work at guitar center so i will definitely be letting people know
about your business when people are swapping out pickups and need a custom made
ring. -Jonathan Mullen
Hi Dave, I just wanted to show you the final picture of the truss rod
cover you made for me. I had to replace the nut on this guitar, but your
cut the truss rod so correctly, it fits perfectly. I'm really happy with the
results. See attached image, and feel free to show it off on your website
as work you've done if you wish. Take care, Robert D
