When buying one of the new Hosco hardtail Strat bodies the builder will be required to position the bridge as there are no string-through holes to use as a guide. This is not as daunting as it sounds, thanks to this wonderful online resource, the Stewart-MacDonald Fret Position Calculator. Simply enter the number of frets […]
A number of sample items arrived with the Gotoh/Hosco shipment. Some will be finding their way into stock soon and some were ruled out. I need some input on this one though. Gotoh is producing a rather sexy range of vintage Telecaster bridges with their own compensated saddle design. I received one sample of the […]
Starting off with the smallest of the new lines with slotted radiused bone nut from Hosco. With bigger string slots than the Allparts “guides” these require much less adjustment when fitting.

It would appear that Paypal made some changes to their site/server this morning, which may have resulted in orders being rejected/not completed. If you didn’t receive a confirmation email then your order was not completed and payment was not taken. I have been testing for the last 15 minutes and it appears that everything is […]
It has been a while but they are finally back! A direct fit for vintage spec bodies so they are compatible with our Mighty Mite and Hosco bodies. Fender may not supply these with allen wrenches any more, but I do! They have been “awaiting customs clearance” for 4 days so as soon as tracking […]
One of my customers has a Tele with a Piezo and has modded it with a La Cabronita tone switching set-up. Here’s his write-up of the process and a couple of pictures. Over to you, Terry! Put this tele-thinline together about 12 years ago with a Fishman Piezo, StewMac body and Warmouth neck ( before […]
