You may have noticed a couple of additions to the store. The final 5 Mighty Mite V-Profile Telecaster necks have been added to Clearance Corner. They have minor cosmetic blemishes, hence the reduction. Links to pictures of each neck and a short description are in the product info. I also have a new neck in […]

The shipment is on the way and tracking shows and ETA of Wednesday. I have emailed everyone about special orders, but in case I missed you, drop me a line. As mentioned in my last post I will be closed on Thursday (and possibly Friday) for end of year stocktake, so this (very large!) shipment […]
Apologies for the lack of posting – unfortunately I have not had much to convey. The Gotoh/Hosco shipment that was supposed to arrive this week has been delayed (hopefully not too long) and there is still no sign of when Allparts will resume shipping rosewood necks. April 5th is the end of the financial year […]
These came in a small Hosco/Gotoh top-up order. Only a few to see if they are popular. A clever locking system that keeps the vintage looks without adding much weight. No thumbwheels to worry about, the string is locked automatically as the post is turned. See a demonstration video here (flash player required). As with […]
I have just placed a new order with Hosco to beat the CITES regulations on rosewood products which come into effect on January 2nd. From Jan 2nd until they secure the necessary permits (which could take months), Hosco will not be able to ship rosewood internationally. Thankfully they have stock on hand and it will […]
This has been discussed on some forums for a few months now, but I finally have something concrete to share. From January 2017 (almost) all species of rosewood will have restrictions imposed on them under CITES regulations. From this announcement from NAMM “all manufacturers and retailers of musical instruments containing one or more rosewood species […]
A quick roundup – Aged round string trees, Telecaster jack cups, Stratocaster jack plates and vintage style strap pins are all now available. While I currently have stocks of all ready to go, sometimes there may be a one or two day delay in shipping while I age some from stock. Clearance Corner – one […]
All but one box with the tools, CTS pots and some special order items. Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow but TNT won’t be hurrying as it is not considered late until next Tuesday! Back in stock – Gotoh “In-Tune” compensated saddles in brass and a few sets of titanium (yay!), Gotoh vintage Kluson style tuners […]
It was dispatched Friday but today is a holiday in Japan so it has been sitting in Tokyo Narita airport since then! Estimated arrival according to the tracking is Tuesday 17th but I am crossing my fingers and toes for a little miracle and delivery this Friday. Just to be on the safe side though […]
I will be placing an order for Hosco and Gotoh parts in about 2 weeks. If you have a special order for a particular item that I do not usually carry, please get in touch. This applies for anything from the Hosco and Gotoh ranges (incliding Hosco luthier tools), but I’m still not ordering black […]
