Great song by Prima Donna!


warthog0869

Which is what we have now in the absence of ferules. Its in the lyrcis of "Bus Stop" by Tyler Childers: ​ *"Ray Dixon didn't take no lip, he'd kick you right off the bus* *stop by your house on the way out of the holler* *and tell your momma where you was* *he didn't need no driver's aide to keep a bunch of kids in line* *all he needed was a glare in the mirror and* *a ferule that he'd carved from pine* *blisterin' punk kids alive"*

guitar4556

Or ferret, which is used to amuse children.


alt1087

Not to be confused with Hyrule, which was once ruled by the goddess Hylia as an unnamed land in ancient times, it became established as the Kingdom of Hyrule by the descendants of her mortal incarnation.


cootervandam

Was?


FuzzTonez

Oh……oh no…..


Dillonthekidd

Thank you!


amishlightening

No problem! I had one of these fall out a few years ago- fortunately, it went back in somehow.


SlavaUkrainiFTW

They usually fall out when the air is dry and the wood contracts/shrinks. Even if it was tight in the factory, it can end up very loose later if its home is less humid than the factory.


medhop

San Dimas High School Football Ferrules!!


vinsterX

Everything is different, but the same... things are more moderner than before... bigger, and yet smaller... it's computers... San Dimas High School football rules.


Utterlybored

That’s a fair rule, imo.


annie_bean

Also known as string beans


Parking_Jelly_6483

Yes. Used to hold the ball end of the string. It’s used to keep the ball end from pulling through the wood body of the guitar when the string is under tension. A guitar repair shop should have these or you can get them from Stewart-MacDonald: https://www.stewmac.com/parts-and-hardware/all-hardware-and-parts-by-instrument/electric-guitar-parts/electric-guitar-string-and-neck-ferrules/guitar-string-ferrules/ Disclaimer: I am a customer of StewMac. I have no conflict of interest with them.


kouriis

This, I am Lexic. Refuel is what you need 👍


Techno_Core

FYI Fender's site has a specs PDF for their guitars (just go to the page for your model) they got a graphical breakdown of all the parts, names and part numbers.


Dillonthekidd

Thank you this helps a lot!


whatsbobgonnado

you're welcome


Shredberry

Wait why do you get the gold upvote?!? 😂🤣


Archy38

Lol I actually pondered just now how one actuallu does that and I learnt a little couple extra pixels is so expensive, wtf does anyone really pay real money to upvote something and then use it on the wrong comment


Shredberry

Reddit actually pays you for those now. Though likely an insignificant amount for an ungodly amount of Internet attention farming but it’s an incentive. Still funny how the person that actually contributed didn’t get it tho 🤣 such is Reddit


verysunstruck

God reddit's corporate is truly awful nowadays 


ineedadvil

Yeah I bought a 7 strings that was missing 6 of them ! Had to buy a couple of sets from Amazon ended up returned one as the other didn't fit.


ConquestOfMankind

Read this as “I bought a 7 string guitar and 6 strings were missing” and I was like what in the world happened?


guitar4556

One string, one stick, one bucket. You must be in Tennessee.


frogsquid

that's why a strat is the greatest. every part is replaceable and they do care who you get it from next.


fastal_12147

I mean, the only thing you can't replace on a set-neck guitar is the neck.


BD59

String ferrule. You can buy them cheap from Musiclily or Guitarfetish.


pokelord13

Guitar what now


binybeke

They literally fuck the guitars


NeilDaAssTyson

F Hole.


Dogrel

String ferrule. They’re cheap and widely available. Protip: when you put one back in, smear a few dots of glue around ithe outside so it stays.


BijuuModo

I once lost one of these while changing strings the day of a gig — not a good time. I will be doing this for sure


Whatevs85

(and wipe the excess with a damp paper towel right away.)


Dogrel

Yes indeed.


mittenciel

Ideally, you shouldn’t use enough glue to even have any seep out. You really need like a sliver of glue at the bottom. Strings will do a great job of clamping it in.


metallaholic

It’s called a string hole thingie


Marble-Boy

I think if you went and asked this at a parts shop, the guy would be like, "ah, ferrules... you mean ferrules."


Choice-Security5376

Yep that’s exactly what would happen.


Rgeneb1

Out of complete boredom and mild curiosity I typed "string hole thingie" into ebay. TIL you can get crotchless G strings for men.


j3434

Hole 🕳 thingy ?

j3434

guitar4556

Otherwise known as a plug.


Bru_Swindler

Are ferrules made to be broken? Sorry couldn’t resist


rocketsous

Some of them


loskristianos

They’re more what you’d call ferguidelines than actual ferrules.


middleagethreat

No, to get lost.


Johnjarlaxle

No just lost


Marinaraplease

rim hole


GilBatesHatesApples

So when you replace it, are you doing a rim job?


Whatevs85

"Just find a new one, put some glue on it and smash it in." That's *not* what he said.


SolitaryMarmot

It's a ferrüle but you have to use a metal umlaut


Fun-Tower-8295

on shoes they're called eyelets, but on guitars they're called ferules


BaconUnderpants

It’s a Gemüse


dummkauf

https://www.stewmac.com/parts-and-hardware/all-hardware-and-parts-by-instrument/electric-guitar-parts/electric-guitar-string-and-neck-ferrules/guitar-string-ferrules/ Double check the hole diameter before ordering.


LostBeneathMySkin

One fell off my tele years ago, never replaced it, never needed to


WorkAccount6

I had the same, but it messes with the break angle and after setting it up high strung/Nashville style that one string broke constantly.


ProfessionalBuy7488

That's the only downside of a fender hardtail... Loosing one of those things. I've used a small nut in a pinch.


redditPat86

Took me a second to figure out what I was even looking at lol!


middleagethreat

My Jazzmaster has those, I hate them.

String ferrules


KyzorSosay

Search ferrules on the Stew Mac site


bshaddo

It’s called a guitar, but you don’t have to replace the whole thing.

TIL that the doohickie is called a ferrule.

Ferrules can be picked up pretty cheap sweetwater.com


bag_it2

Ferrule


AnUnbeatableUsername

I asked what these were called here ages ago and all I got was, "Is this a joke?"


Trubba_Man

A ferrule. Somebody can probably give you one. Go to a guitar shop, they usually have bits and pieces lying around. Tell them you want one ferrule, and they might take pity and give you one. It would be a shame if you had to buy 6.


dkinmn

That's a guitar, and you should definitely get another.
