Allparts Blog – Guitar Parts News and Commentary

Hello friends!  We know you love new parts so we’ve brought quite a bit of them to you this time around – far too many to post the details on all of them.  Instead, we’ll provide a brief rundown of some of the more exciting and anticipated parts.  This is mostly a summation of the last several posts we’ve made announcing new parts – along with some additions.  The full lineup of new guitar, bass, and amplifier parts for 2012 can be found on Allparts’ New Products section.

Bodies

We’ve added three bodies to our regular inventory stock. The first is, at the time of this writing, already sold out. Take at look at TBF-PKP – our new pink paisley finished Telecaster body. Pretty cool, yes? Also available are two new unfinished Ash bodies – SBAO-NPO and TBAO-NPO – “neck pocket only” non-routed Stratocaster and Telecaster bodies.

While we have your attention on bodies, go check out our 2nd quality guitar and bass bodies while they last.

Various Knobs

In the same way our shotgun shell guitar knobs saw big sales upon release last year, our new heavy knurl barrel knobs have been seeing the same success since we launched them 2 months ago. Check out part MK-0112 on Allparts.com to see what’s got everyone so excited. The knobs have even gained favor with the relic and aging community, as seen in our recent post featuring these reliced heavy knurl knobs.

We also have new silver and gold glitter dice knobs and chrome and gold Marshall knobs. Find them all in our New Products listing.

Amp Hardware

We had previously announced the a new Amp Hardware product line (with product code prefix AH) and we’ve already added to it.  Along with jack plates and speaker plates for your amp we’ve added several parts, such as caster wheel sets and assorted cabinet piping, to help you restore your amp to the look and functionality it had before you started hauling it around in trucks.  You’ll want to keep an eye on this category of parts because we will be adding to it steadily throughout the year.

Bone Nuts and Saddles

Many additions have been made to our already large selection of bone nuts and saddles. They include slotted nuts for Precision Bass and Jazz Bass, BN-2350 and BN-2351 respectively, and a new part number suffixes -0U0 denoting unbleached bone and -00Y for resonant plastic. The result is a wide selection of various bone and synthetic materials for most popular Fender and Gibson guitars. Check out our new products section to see these in once place.

Bridge Pins

We wrote about this a while back too, but we’ve added more pins since then. Head to the New Parts section on allparts.com to see them all.
