We have had quite a run on our hipshot style hardtail bridge, no doubt due to its suitability as a drop in replacement on the Mexican La Cabronitas. We have a hardware order shipping at the end of March (including at least one cool new exclusive to Axecaster product), but due to the popularity we […]

After a bit of a delay we now have black Esquire pickguards back in stock. Direct replacement for Fender pickguards and the perfect blank canvas for custom pickup layouts. Thicker than vintage at 2mm to help prevent warping but with a straight edge for the vintage vibe. The cutout and thickness is a perfect match […]
We now have a bunch of Mighty Mite unfinished swamp ash Telecaster bodies in stock. Various weights and grain patterns, if there is anything particular you are looking for get in touch and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
The new Mighty Mite shipment is on the way. It was supposed to ship Friday but due to UPS leaving out some pertinent information when setting up my account it was delayed until yesterday when I instructed my usual carrier DHL to collect. Projected arrival is Friday. There are unfortunately a few things that Mighty […]
These arrived on our latest hardware shipment. They are the same specification as the brass model (they are made in the same factory) but made from nickel plated steel to give a slightly brighter tone. Same price as the brass at £7.50 a set. Look for a Mighty Mite update over the weekend!

The first of the new products to be put into use on one of my guitars is a 500k linear* push/push pot. I have been waiting for these to arrive to use on my La Cabronita S1 switch alternative wiring. The functionality/layout is identical to the push/pull pots with the added benefit of being easier […]
I will be posting about each new product individually over the coming week, but here is an overview of the new products we have received in this shipment. First a note that Wilkinson Deluxe Kluson style Machine Heads are back in stock in chrome. Now on to the new stuff. Staying with machine heads, we […]
We are being informed by our supplier that our hardware shipment should be completed on Monday. Hopefully that will mean arrival here before next weekend, although with time difference/DHL scheduling/the law of sod we can’t swear to it! Similarly, we are hearing from Mighty Mite that the latest container (which was originally due at the […]
A new addition to our store, we have had these made to be direct replacements for modern Fender USA/Mexican Standard pickguards. Based on Fender 57 Reissue Stratocaster specs but with the mount hole by the switch relocated to match modern pickguards. These will directly retrofit modern USA and Mexican Standard Stratocaster without the need to […]
