lespauluII Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Im new here to the forum and a new Epi owner. I am glad to see that Epiphone has set up this site. I want to change some of the trim/hardware parts out on my LP ultra II and don't know who to order thru. We don't have a local dealer in our area. Any help ?? Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcwillow777 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 www.stewmac.com has a pretty good selection of harware. You can call them and tell them what you want to do and they can steer you in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Here's how I've gotten original Epiphone parts - I e-mailed customer service, got the part numbers and asked my local Epi dealer to oder them. Got them in a couple weeks. Pretty painless. It's usually the smaller shops that will give you that kind of service. The "big box" shops usually don't give a rip what parts you need. (Just my experience). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Just my experience).[/quote'] Completely agree with the smaller shops. You may pay a bit more but the service is usually way way better. And quicker as well. Case in point: I ordered an Eminence (10 inch Rajun Cajun) speaker through GC. It took 1 day short of 4 weeks before they had it! That really pissed me off. Shortly after that, I ordered 2 more Eminence speakers ( 12 Inch Texas Heat ) from my favorite small shop. I paid about $10 more each, but they arrived in just over a week. Anyway, to stay on topic, I like the stuff that GuitarFetish has. Good quality and low prices, quick shipping as well. GC may have low prices, but IMHO, I think their service and customer care kinda sucks (unless you flash them a big wad of bills I suppose).

PJ Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 When the dealer trick won't do, 've had lots of success finding tough to find parts at AllParts. Stew-Mac, GuitarPartsResource & GuitarFetish, too. All really good parts spots that'll usually have more in-stock, or more interest in helping you, than the big-box shops.

TWANG Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 If you're looking for genuine epi parts, it's epi or ebay. I sell replacement parts, upgrades, that fit. WD, ALL Parts are my primary suppliers. TWANG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lespauluII Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Thanks for all the great sources for parts. As soon as the warranty is up I am going to change a few things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
