I figured I would kill three birds with one stone, I am looking for a matte black tune-o-matic bridge/ matte black volume knobs, and matte black locking one side machine heads. What brands and sites do you guys recommend me? I have searched but have found little to no satisfying results, so I would love some help. Thanks :cheers:

Gotoh makes guitar parts with the X-Finish which looks kinda matte-finish-like. Not sure if they make 7 string parts. You could try messaging them and see if you could get one made.

Sperzels are kind of expensive, but they are awesome.

I have never seen a satin black tune-o-matic though. If price isn't a huge factor you may be able to use graphite saddles and give the rest of the bridge a few coats of satin poly.

You could also use ebony knobs, and give them a satin finish.

I've got black Sperzels, they're matte black, order them in black, you should get the matte ones, they hold the tuning so well, and make string changes a breeze

Sperzels were it, now just the matter of finding where singles or a 7 string set are sold and then I can order them.
