Where can I find original parts for my vintage guitar?

1 Answer

Answer :

I’m not sure for a great answer here but I just had my 1980 Strat setup by a local Luthier who seemed to have every part to every guitar ever made in a box on top of box sitting on a shelf in the back room of his shop that had 300 other shelves full of dusty parts. PM to remind me and I will call him tomorrow to see if he has the part or at the least will know where to look!
