Ibanez parts in the UK?

[Adagio_777]

Any UK based websites selling parts?, I'm after some new springs and screws and what not.

I don't think my local music shop sells anything I'm after.

Much appreciated.

They wont, but they can order them if they are Ibanez dealers, and for some freaky reason Ibanez parts are not too expensive in the UK compared to the US.

Thanks. I e-mailed Rich and I'll probably order some parts within the next 2 weeks, I just have to figure out what to buy, $10 is the minimum amount to spend.

Ring Sound Control in Manchester (www.soundcontrol.co.uk) and ask for Aidy (their luthier) he can get stuff in for you, nice guy too.

[Adagio_777]

Thanks. Is that pronounced Aid-e?

[Davey]

Yep, I've taken loads of Ibanez gear in there that's had stuff replaced and he gets the spares in rapid fashion too.

Then there is Max from Johnny Roadhouse music who seems like a nice guy and can get stuff but he seems to put his own "tax" on things if you know what I mean either that or Aidy gets stuff a wee bit cheaper.

[Adagio_777]

Great stuff, don't suppose you have any idea how much a trem spring will set me back? I have no idea how much they're priced over here, that's if they're even priced.

[Davey]

I honestly think one of those two guys will sort you one for about £2, give them a ring!

Hey Max, hows it going bro
Now I hope you ain't been adding "tax" on the stuff I've been buying from you!

[ibanezking]

course not! Who's this ibanez249 fella anyway dissin my reputation? Picking up Boneheads (ex-Oasis) guitar in the morning for a check over and set-up. Done quite a bit of work for him - so he must be happy with ity to keep coming back??? Max

[Davey]

lol, no offense mate, Aidy was just a tad cheaper when he sorted me out. Could be Johnny Roadhouse for all I know. Like I say all is cool though no reputation dissed
