Are 1961 Ludwig/ Gretsch dial-clip consolettes the same?

Posts: 33 Threads: 11

Just wondering if 1961 Ludwig/Gretsch single bolt, phone dial, spade clip consolettes are the same.

Are the various parts a compatible fit? eg; putting together the arm + phone dial + spade clip from one or the other or both

Thanks

From vintagemore2000

I would be surprised if they are compatible, Slingerlands were made by Walberg & Auge and Ludwig is made by one of their Chicago Vendors.

Thanks for the quick reply

Nope.....there are multiple versions of all the parts. Rail bracket, Rail, Rider, Riser top, Spade, etc. You cannot mix and match all the parts, that is, some will not work. For instance what happened to me...the spade that I had was too thin for the rider top...it would not tighten. The problem was the riser top, it was a slightly different diameter than the one made for that spade.
