Title: Pickup parts
Post by: amptech on March 29, 2016, 02:16:35 PM

I seem to get more and more pickup work these days... Lots of US suppliers have pickup parts, but none of whom I have done business with before.

Does anybody here have experience with companies like ´tone-kraft´or mojo tone?

I've dealt with Mojotone for parts before, this was a while back before they started carrying pickup parts. Good company. Haven't heard of the other one.

How 'bout Stewart-Macdonald? Though they can be a bit pricey... :-[

Mojotone has a better selection of many pickup components as well as lower prices. Not that there's anything wrong with Stew-Mac.

Oh, I have a StuMac account, but as Dave said they do not have much to choose from when it comes to pickups.

I´ll try to put in an order at Mojotone´s and see how it goes.

Allparts has pickup parts and they're generally cheaper than anyone else in the US for me. 

What are you looking for? Check their site and give me the part numbers  I can add it to an order I have ready to go and send it by US mail to you.

There's also Philadelphia Luthier.  I have an order I'm ready to place with them, I'll do the same deal if they have what you want.

He's not in the US, unless we've just annexed Norway.

Thanks, Dave.  I knew he's in Scandinavia, couldn't remember which country.  USPS is fairly cheap for small packages to the Eurozone....until they privatize it.
