Parts!

**a7xschecter6661** · 02-20-2012

Figured I should ask you guitar GURUs where I should get some of the parts I am looking for.
Considering buying some of the stuff used, but think I would rather have new.
Anyone got some good sites to buy this stuff from? I still haven't decided on black or gold hardware

bridge and tail piece (not doing string through)
Grover,Sperzel or another nice tuner set
Guitar pots, with or without knobs possibly pre-assembled ready to wire to pickups? Or I can start fresh
knobs
Pickup plate
graphtech nut, or another nice one
Battery cover to install for active pickups
pickup rings

Pickups! I am either doing
Gold EMG set
Invader/Invader

or HOPEFULLY
Sustainiac/invader!!

Let me know if you guys know any good sites with good deals!!

Oh Yeah forgot Warmoth sold alot of stuff they sale Sparzels individualy also so if you ever decided to build a 7 string you could get the tuners from them.

For pickups, I don't think you can score a better deal than on eBay. If not, every major guitar shop (GC/MF/Sweetwater) should have them.

Amazon or any website than price match music123

My problem with music sites is how much they bend you over.
A lot of sites want like $85 for an invader that's $72 on ebay.

or $18 for dye for maple tops and such when its the same exact thing as $3 RIT dye at the craft store! lol

You can use RIT dye?!?

**a7xschecter6661** · 02-20-2012

Dye is just color in powder or liquid form.
RIT dye and the guitar dye have the SAME directions.
Mix with water or alcohol and apply
