TBF-PKP - Allparts Pink Paisley Telecaster Body

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.

New Bulk Parts

You ask and we listen. In response to customer feedback, we’ve created bulk packs for more of your favorite and frequently-purchased guitar and bass parts. New additions include bulk packs of 4-way Oak Grigsby switches, push-pull pots, and more. Visit the new products section to see what’s… new!

Much More…

Like we said, there’s just too much to list. Head over to Allparts.com and check out the new parts list to see everything we didn’t mention – like new pickups, short Telecaster bridges, Epiphone and ES-335 wiring kits, bridges, Wilkinson-style trems, high-purity wire, screws, neck accessories, and a guitar case.

Of course, we’re always pleased to see a product embraced by parts professionals and players, but we’re also excited to see people getting creative with our parts. A customer recently shipped us a sample of some of these knobs that we just love, but we’re not sure what to call them. Reliced, aged, modifed, improved… you can be the judge.

One thing is for certain though – even though we stock thousands of parts that allow for countless ways to customize or rebuild your rig, there are always people who think outside the box and whose creativity provides us all with unique and beautiful parts.

Many thanks to our customer, whose work should be available in limited amounts on eBay very soon.

Greg’s first project, an all walnut guitar named Brownie, was built under the Redtail Guitars logo in 1992. Greg acquired the 95-year old original walnut burl slab as a chair seat back in 1973. Luckily, he found a much better use for both the wood and his creativity. Greg designed and shaped the body on his own because he didn’t have a Les Paul template. The result was an one-of-a-kind beauty which he gifted to his son, and has since seen a great deal of play in shows and recordings.

Over the years, Redtail Guitar Accessories has turned out a wide variety of quality projects. Pictured below is a gorgeous and impressive Gold Top clone and an “ugly is the new cool” Tele parts caster.

We at Allparts extend our gratitude to Greg and Redtail Guitar Accessories for their loyal business, and for helping make great guitars and great music. Greg can be reached through the Redtail Guitar Accessories eBay Store.
