Parts & Spares

Here's a page of links to websites for parts and spares. I'll be adding to the list from time to time.

Allparts UK	Online store for a wide range of spares and retro-fit bits.
Armstrong Music	Formerly WD Music UK, run by Aaron Armstrong, son of Kent and grandson of Dan. Lots of necks, bodies and other guitar parts. Especially good on scratchplates. Also a go-to for Kent Armstrong pickups and all types of pickup rewinds. Also check out their US site.
L.R. Baggs	Very high quality acoustic pickups, preamps and amplification. Deserved bestsellers.
Eagle Music	Excellent range of instruments, strings and parts. Particularly useful if you need individual strings or a custom gauge set.
EMG pickups	Active pickups. I especially like their 7-string and bass humbuckers.
K & K Sound	Very high quality acoustic pickups - we sell a lot of them and have fitted them successfully on everything from an African cora harp to a didgeridoo .... Their Pure Mini is the best passive bridgeplate transducer pickup I've come across.
Seymour Duncan	The Vintage range has been a favourite of mine since the early 1980s. Seymour's latest venture is the Antiquity and Antiquity II Series of hand wound and aged pickups which produce the genuine sound and vibe of pickups made in the '50s and '60s.
USA Custom Guitars	These guys are getting a lot of praise for their custom necks and bodies.
Vintage Jack	A Vintage Jack is the only way to fit an endpin jack if you don't want to modify the original tapered endpin hole. Pricey but handmade and very high quality.
Warmoth Guitar Products	Custom necks and bodies in a wide range of configurations. Specialists in variable radius fingerboards and custom neck profiles.
