Fancy Slatboard guitar hangers...

Now offering all WD and ALLPARTS supplies at 25% discount. No one else seems to discount and the retail prices are kinda high generally, so for my friends and customers I've decided to offer this service. I keep very little in stock so delivery averages 7-10 days. Just visit thier site to find the specific item and price, then tell me what you want (or ask me if there's something you can't find). There IS a $15.00 minimum since I'll be absorbing the initial shipping costs. Orders under $15.00 will incur an additional $5.00 shipping fee, so it just makes more sense to buy an extra pot or something. I will order extra of the common items (pots switches) every so often so that eventually I will have some "in stock" inventory and can bypass the minimum order deal...

I can supply you with most of the components for winding pickups if you'd like to try your hand at it. I am NOT looking to be a retailer for these items, and if you do get into it it'll be cheaper to buy in quantity as I do....

I can now supply you with all of the "vintage correct" hookup wire as used by Fender, Fralin, et all (22awg stranded tinned cloth "pushback" in black white and yellow) and Gibson (single 22awg stranded tinned in black cloth pushback w/ braid shield), This is the same stuff from the same supplier that they all use. (the stuff from Allparts and the like is close but not the same)Pricing is dependent on quantity.
