Unfortunately the regular yearly price increase from suppliers is coming soon. Some lines have already increased and increases over and above the standard inflationary rises are coming due to increased cost of raw materials and shipping. Wilkinson machine heads have already had a price increase of 15% in October. I placed an order before the […]

I have been considering adding a few things to the store. The first up for discussion are Gotoh Telecaster knobs. I am interested in carrying both shiny new chrome and relic version. I think these are the best non-boutique relic chrome knobs on the market. They have a good knurl, a nice 52-ish flattened dome […]
A busy start to the week – 2 hardware shipments arrived yesterday/today. The Gotoh shipment restocked Kluson style tuners, both aged and shiny along with CTS pots. The miscellaneous hardware shipment replenished chrome Wilkinson Tele bridges, Alpha A250K pots and blank Telecaster control plates. Along with the nickel “G Arrow” knobs it also contained Stratocaster […]
Well, one new one and a few new products being given the relic treatment. New in are vintage spec Telecaster control plates. As Hosco stopped offering their plate for some reason I’ve had my supplier make these to Fender spec and 1.6mm thick. Just like the 2mm plates, these are the same length and […]
Just arrived, a batch of B5 Bigsby vibratos. The B5 is suitable for flat top solid body guitars and used on Telecasters, Gibson SG/Jrs etc They are lighter than I was expecting – lighter than a standard tremolo for sure. Pair with a Telecaster Bigsby-ready bridge and you’re good to go!
New in today I have these Telecaster bridges for use with Bigsbys. The bridge plate is made by Allparts and has the back edge cutouts to allow a clean string path to the Bigsby. It also has regular string through holes so you don’t need a new bridge if you remove the Bigsby! The Gotoh […]
For those of you not following our Facebook Page (and you should like/follow it as sometimes I post there and not here) here’s what has been added to the store recently. A bunch of new relic/aged products to complement the existing lines. First up Hosco vintage Telecaster bridges. An alternative to the Fender version these […]
A few new lines have been added to the store. First up, a long body toggle switch. Solidly made this is a good quality alternative to the Switchcraft version. Note that the threads are metric and Switchcraft knobs and nuts will not fit. That is pertinent to the second new item, an extender nut for […]
As you may have guessed from the Facebook post yesterday, the hardware shipment that was due mid-December has finally arrived. Along with steel compensated Telecaster saddles, the following are now back in stock – hipshot-style hardtail bridge, dome top knobs for solid shaft pots (chrome and nickel), flat top knobs for solid shaft pots (nickel), […]
Just a quick note on the status of the Hardtail Hipshot style bridges. They were supposed to be here at the end of November, then supposed to ship today and now I’m being told they are going to ship Friday. Fingers crossed they actually do, however they won’t be here in time to get orders […]
