where to buy caps, pots, etc...

[spratocaster]

Hi Everyone,

So I am going to try changing the pickups myself. I am wondering where can I get good quality things like caps, pots, etc... I tried Stewmac, but their stuff seemed a little cheap and not premium parts. So where do you guys buy your parts?

i get orange drop caps off ebay, martinsixstringcustoms on this forum (and on ebay ) is a great trader, i've gotten a fair few top-notch bits off him.. which brands/parts are you after?

http://www.blackrosecustom.emerchantpro.com/index.html is the best...they measure each pot and can get you values very close to what you want or a very close match to eachother. i stupidly in the past ordered from another place and did get real cts pots but they should have been 500K but 3 out of 5 were under 500K in the 468-480 range which kinda sucks but they work fine. every pot i got from black rose has been 500K+

plus they are great guys to deal with!!
