Fender Acoustic Guitar Parts For Sale (2024 Update)

Better than any locking tuner, you just have to measure the string to the second peg above the one you're using, cut it and put it in. When you get to the unwound ones, clip a little shorter (can't tell you how to measure, I figured it out by trial and error. I would estimate 3 wraps by sort of wrapping it loosely, then cut). Perfect match to the vintage F tuners made on the great strats of yore, you can age them to match by fuming the finish with muriatic acid. Place the tuners on an upside down bowl in a piece of tuperware with an inch or so of acid. Seal the lid. Place in a bath of hot water, and the acid will heat and evaporate. After 10 – 15 minutes check the level of chrome removal. You can always do more, but you can't easy put chrome back on. Rinse with cold water when you're done. RAWK ON!!!!ki_jaybones

I build custom Strat/Tele's so this may not apply to all but…. Like others said this peg uses press-fit front bushing style similar to low cost Squire Strat. For standard diecast pegs I drill 10 mm diameter holes on peg head. I use aftermarket necks with 8 mm diameter hole (I remember it is same as low cost Squire). What I do on 8 mm holes for this peg is I drill 4 mm deep 23/64 (9.1 mm??) diameter counterbore holes to accommodate the bushings. I strongly recommend using drill press not hand drill for this. Also for a better support of peg shaft, I made Teflon sleeves to fill the peghead holes of 8 – 10 mm with silicone grease. One minor issue I have is peghead of some aftermarket Tele neck is a little undersized so I need to file the end peg (High E) a bit to fit.Basement Blues

Your ad advertises the pin in a box but it comes in a small plastic; and though not an essential part of a guitar accessories, it has its charm and functionality for other usage… but it wasn't part of the package… deceived!worldpeacekingcup2004

These are a nice, smoother functioning replacement for the old, butterfly type string trees. I put one on my Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster and the trem moves way smoother with the B and E under this.berns1931

Most American Fenders come with this type string guide, and I absolutely love the looks of them. So I bought a set for my Mexican Stratocaster, and my Indonesian Squire Standard Telecaster (which both came with rams horn string guides). They all do the same thing, I just prefer the looks of the American Standard T. Be forewarned though; these string guides come with a nud/nipple on the bottom (in front of the screw hole) to hold the base in place, and not let the guide twist or turn. So, drilling WILL be required on a non-American guitar. And if you're as obsessive as I am…it is tricky and time consuming to assure the string guide is perfectly straight once in place with the newly drilled nub/nipple hole. And to install two of them on a guitar that formally had one…take your time, and good luck. Will look fantastic when your done, so the work (to me) is every bit worth it.White Dog

Someone had given me a strat but the string guides were bent and needed replaced. After going on line and reading about all the choices of string guides available, I was totally confused. When in my local Sam Ash store (Richmond, VA.) and the associate Dan explained to me everything about string guides and highly recommended these. Took them home and in a matter of minutes had them installed. They look good on the guitar and helps well with the staying in tune. I will say that after talking to Dan at Sam Ash, and his knowledge of guitars, I consider myself an expert in guitar string guides.AL

I have a chrome set and a red set on my fenders. The red is really tasteful. They are easy to use and keep my favorite guitars safe. They stick out a lot so the strap has to come off before going in some cases.Brad

Used on my new Telecaster. Very sturdy. Some players may find them bulky; I like the large knobs. They are easy to grasp and they prominently display the iconic F. I really like the quick connect and disconnect.Tim

Definitely awsome sause lol they look great they're very user friendly, allowing so much more room to work your magic without being pinned into your instrument…I wish I had tryd them a long time ago. Let the creativity roll..shemcmu-54

The Fender Dual pot solves the issue that arises with having both single coil and humbucking pickups in a guitar that only has one volume pot. It's obviously designed with Strats in mind, but I could see this being used in other style guitars. Keep in mind that this isn't designed to be used for a tone pot, but as a volume pot only, and with it basically being two pots stacked on each other you may encounter issues in guitars with shallow cavities. I bought this to use in my Super Strat conversion, with a rail humbucker in the bridge and a single coil in the neck. I'm sure this would be perfect for HSS as well.thecrimsondawn

The included instructions in B&W aren't very useful but you can find the colored diagram via a Google search. If you have a normal Strat body you can still install this without any modification to the body: – the mid-boost circuit will fit at the bottom of the control cavity provided you clip couple of its corners. However you however no longer have clearance for the TBX tone pot, so you can either replace it by a normal 250K pot (or a no-load Fender pot) which is what Clapton himself uses, or you switch the positions of the TBX tone control vs mid-boost pot control. – the battery is trickier. You can, with proper insulation, fit it in-between the 5-way switch and volume pot. That's a very tight fit though, especially with the board already in the cavity, but it's also very inconvenient to replace the battery. Some have replaced their tremolo block for a much thinner one in order to fit the battery, or removed a few springs to fit it in there; either way the tremolo become unusable. However Fishman makes a 9V battery pack tremolo cover that is perfect for this midboost circuit (and any other active electronics), it's not cheap but it's a direct retrofit for the standard tremolo cover, provides days of playtime, and quickly recharges via USB.customized-guitars

I hear a lot of folks complimenting the sound, OK pre amps are pre amps and wiring mods are wiring mods, I just bought this as a kit not realizing it would be sorely lacking in basic key features yet loaded with um, dummy features? first off the way this unit is activated is way beyond my comprehension, you turn it on by plugging in your guitar jack, yup thats the "on" switch, so we all know what that means, more miles on the switch and a lot of dead batteries as the ONLY way to turn it off is to unplug the guitar? I have seen some of the loaded pick guards with this kit and WOW, they actually want you to out the battery UNDER the pick guard? UNREAL how long till someone has to use the bathroom and sets the guitar down, gets side tracked and the battery is DRAINED? you might think ah thats OK it sounds good in passive mode and I have pedals to so no biggie right? WRONG they DO NOT have a passive mode feature, thats right you read this right, a very simple radio shack switch, 12" of wire and 2" of solder and like 10 more minutes worth of labor to wire in a passive mode bypass switch, and hey guess what? while were already MODDING the MOD we may as well do a 2 bird one stone thing and when you SWITCH the guitar into passive mode you SHUT THE BATTERY power OFF, novel idea right? that way the REAL way to shut down the preamp is to simply FLIP it into passive mode!!! I know kind of a 60's thing but hey when your battery is under the pick guard you may want to have that ability to shut her down without having to add more wear and tear on your input and cables.. I'm considering going 90's with mine and adding a timeout mod, if there is no activity in a preset (user definable) amount of time it shuts itself off, and to reset it very easily you just roll the guitar sideways strings up or down and the small tiny mercury switch turns it back on for you, I know thats sort of a 2000's thing but hey it is 2015 rolling up onto 2016… lolEx; Jim the Runner

I put this into a pedal enclosure rather than my strat. It is very good and robust for what it is. Having said that it is just a boost. If you are looking for the Clapton mid boost then this is great. However there are other ways to achieve the same results. I think in a Strat it would be superb driving an old Fender tube amp. In a pedal, it is fun to try and not expensive.scarleftpimpler

I first discovered these when purchasing a Fender American Deluxe Strat. Fender only puts them on the American Deluxe Strats and Teles, so far as I know. Since then, I have purchased these and put them on three other of My Fender Teles and Strats. These are a perfect way to upgrade, if your Fender neck has the two-pin guide holes, like most of their modern necks (vintage style excluded). These really are the smoothest Fender machine heads/tuners I've ever found. The lower priced two pin tuners as used on the Player series just aren't as smooth and it seems like the gear ratio is different, too. maybe lower than the Player machine heads, like 18:1. Yes..more expensive, but even without the locking device, well worth it, IMO. The pic is a Tele I recently built with V-Mod pups and 12' radius fret board. I just installed the tuners the other day. The guitar deserved these and I love 'em!songs60s

Have had these new Fender locking tuners on my Stratocaster for a few weeks now, and I must say that I really like them! I think one of the big benefits of locking tuners on a Fender with a whammy bar is that there are no wraps of the string on the tuning pegs, the wraps dont always go back the same way after returning from a dive. Also the new tuners seem to have a little more weight to them than the original tuners. The added weight and mass seem to make the tone of the guitar a little more solid with possibly a bit more sustain. I definitely noticed a big improvement with tuning stability after the first time of doing some dives on the guitar. The feel of the tuners while actually tuning the guitar is very nice too, very smooth and precise. I would not hesitate to buy these tuners again to put on my other Fenders.stratm_88

I bought these for my American Performer Strat. I had no issues with tuning. The vintage tuners that came with it stayed in tune just fine. Had problems with strings slipping while changing them and it was very frustrating. At first I was concerned because they came with no installation instructions and I am not good mechanically at all. Found instructions on how to install them onto the guitar and how to install strings by looking on the internet. So,so easy! All you need is a pair of pliers. Loosen the nut, remove the old tuner and put the new one on. If you are installing on a Fender Strat the holes line up with the two pegs on the locking tuner and they pop right in and you tighten the nut. That simple. To install the string you just pull the string through the peg as tight as you can by hand, tighten the bottom knob which locks the string and cut the string and tune. So, so simple and efficient. I have no problem installing new strings any more! Quick and easy. Everyone should have these. Well worth the money by far!Morningdew

I tried a couple of cheaper versions around the 3 mark but fell apart after a couple of months and the cable going in was not very tight. Bought this fender product and its just so much better quality. The lead is tighter and snaps in place. You can tell the difference. Will definitely buy again if I need a replacement.torq2004

Love these TBX controls. I put the first one on a Warmoth Telecaster with 4-position switch and Fender Lace Sensors I was building, and liked it so well I went back and retrofitted my old hot-rodded 1978 MusicMaster which has the original neck pickup and a DiMarzio Super II Humbucker in the bridge position. A few months ago, I completed a Warmoth Stratocaster build, with Fender Lace Sensors, a 5-position toggle switch, push-pull volume switch for extended pickup combinations, and TWO TBXs! The TBX sounds great with all of them. I'm currently building up an early 70s NOS Fender Coronado body with a Warmoth neck and GFS NYII pickups, and there will be two TBX tone controls on that one, as well.cwadams1955

Great product, same tone pot that's in Eric Clapton's Signature series… where it's wired as a universal. TBX stands for Treble Bass Exchange, which is a fancy way of saying it lets you cut some treble or boost your mid-range when the bass and mid are over muddy.grouchysmurf7

This Fender TBX expands the range of a normal tone pot so that from o to halfway (that has a detent notch) it works as the normal full tone pot. From halfway to full, it then slowly removes lower frequencies. When you have one of these you no longer realize what it is doing but the effect is to smoothly widen the overall tone pot function effectively doubling its range. I put one of these in all my guitars.None

Sembra che tenga meglio l'accordatura, ma la vite è più sottile del foro sulla paletta, ho provato a sostituirla ma al momento non l'ho trovata cromata. Spero che il serraggio con la nuova vite sia solido altrimenti proverò ad occludere il foro con colla e stecchino e poi rifare il foro per la vite più piccola originale del kit abbassacorde acquistatoBartolomeo Di Pierro

Easy to fit and I find a decent length of lead very useful. Probably not so useful if you need to transport the guitar regularly. I get a good clear sound and very useful for recording.7781philip

I love the aged look of the pickup covers and knobs. I have ordered many over the years. The tremolo cover does not match at all and usually has a mint green color. That part of the kit is a waste. I have piles of them which I cannot use. The best look for your Strat is a W/B/W pickguard with matching tremolo cover and these pickup covers and knobs. I will continue to buy the kit. I have tried several others and they are always lacking.lawellness

Everything was fine except for the tremolo cover that fits on the back of the guitar. It was too small and the screw holes would not align with the factory drilled holes. My Stratocaster was a standard design made in Mexico. So it should have fitted.graleat-72

Requires a slight offset towards bridge. About 80 thousands of an inch on my strat. Thought I'd try this out on my Floyd equipped guitar instead of a locking nut. It does actually stay in tune well with moderate use of the wammy bar. Recommend using a couple of roller string trees as well. Nice addition if, like me, you don't like having to loosen the nut clamping screws to get more adjustment dialed into the Floyd bridge fine tuning adjustment screws.wayne451

The Fender LSR Roller nut is a great piece of gear ( yes, gear) for any guitar with a trem system. A long time ago when I was working in a little guitar shop in Venice, CA a fairly well known player of the time told me he always soldered the ball end of his strings whenever he put a new set of strings on his guitar. He said it helped keep is guitar in tune because the ball end is where most of the stretching occurs. So I took him up on his idea and it works great!. I'll put a set of locking tuners (my preference are Sperzels, they're a great company to do business with and they are all American Made) on, too. I've been soldering my strings at the ball end for years now. And with locking tuners and the help of the LSR Nut I have a great locking trem system that needs very little maintenance or repair.clean1too

I just installed this on a Fender Showmaster. Same first as a Strat. Not too bad too install if you plan it out and take your time. The sizes of drill bit and philips driver are critical as noted in instructions. Came out great for me, but unless you have a lot of patience, I'd recommend a luthier installing it. As far as performance, I noticed the problem string I always had with knocking out of tune (G) was only slightly improved. Could be other setup issues that I'll have to look into, but overall I think I had the bridge set up fairly well. Looks pretty spiffy on the guitar though!corvettenlc

This is a really nice pick guard. Fit is perfect. Protective film so no scratches. Package well. Everything as described. Very pleased. All holes do not line up with Korean Squire but it fits perfectly. This is for an original Stratocaster or un-drilled blank body.brazosducati

I came into possession of a Fender Partscaster for which I paid $200. I didnt know what parts were OEM or from what models they came. I just knew the sky blue burst was gorgeous and I had to have it. As it turned out, the body was from Fenders American Elite line making the price an absolute steal. Long story short all of the other parts needed to be swapped out. Once the neck was swapped the truss rod adjuster on the heel wouldnt fit with the non-Elite pickguard. The pickguard was a proper mint green but wrong model. I dremeled the notch out so I could temporarily use it. I finally invested in the proper pickguard a couple of years later and I cant be happier with the quality. Quite glad I didnt buy a cheap Chinese knockoff like I had thought of doing. All thats left is to swap out the Fender vintage bridge with the Elite/Deluxe model. And lastly swap out the cheap Tex-Mex pickups for some 60s era handwound models. Theyll be the only non-Elite part since I wont be getting the appropriate Noiseless Gen 4 type.rangerjack

Great quality cable. Great length too. Fast delivery from ordering thank you. My son is delighted with the sound of his electric guitar now he has the right cable.Jacqueline C.

These Fender Professional cables are very sturdy. There is no crackle they sound great. PMT delivered on time as always in great packaging. PMT are my favourite equipment supplier. No quibble if one is not happy.Gary W.

The Fender Professional Series Cables are rugged, thick, don't twist or tangle. The quality internal components help to minimise any tone, sound quality being lost through them especially in a rig with an isolated power supply to your effects chain. I even use the Fender Pro series patch cables built from the same quality between my pedals. Ideal for home use, studio or the gigging musician. 5 star quality as you'd expect from Fender. Did I mention they are a great price too? I will be buying more for future use9425richards

I put together my own Stratocaster, the build took about a year and a half as genuine fender quality parts can get pricey. The neck plate made my strat look legit and high quality. As a professional musician I'm a stickler on quality parts for my instruments and I can tell tell you with 100% confidence that buying genuine fender parts for your build is worth every penny they just look, feel and sound good.Pablo

Be aware these are about 19 grams in weight and are made of some kind of aluminium alloy. The old strat plates were made of some other heavier non magnetic metal. My strats old plate weighed in at 59 grams; both are roughly about 2.2 mm thickness. The fender f plate and vintage plate are both chrome plated steel, (well magnetic material anyway). The vintage plate is about 32 grams and very thin at about 1.2 mm. The f plate is about 1.5 mm, and a little heavier the vintage, (on guitar so could not weigh). The corona plate seems strong and it has a good chrome finish. I marked it down one star due to the radical weight difference over previous plates, but I'm sure it is strong enough to last. Fender also confirmed that these plates are correct and used on newer strats.goldfinger1976

Nice neck plate. Heavy steel, and deep stamping on the logo. The screws could be better suited but all-in-all, a good price and an above average quality product.lawrsow0

Definitely the best strings at the price point lately. They have a thinner or smoother wind than Ernie Ball slinkys or Daddarrio exl and this results in less finger noise and a zingier tone IMO. I'm into clean and classic rock, and I doubt you would like these over the former two names if you were into more modern and metal sounds. It depends on the guitar for me, on my strat I could use just about any strings. My guitars with humbuckers seem more picky, at least to my ears. I prefer these over the other two as far as cheap strings go, and these are often cheaper. Win win. Used to be I would never have preferred Fender strings so either my tastes are changing or these strings have changed over the years.Joelish

Overall: Don't pay any attention to the low price these are great strings. Have used Fender 7250's on all kinds of bass guitars they always sound great and feel good. Years of use have proved quality. I put them on my Jazz bass, my PJ, and my Squire, have used them on Samick, Music man, OLP, and Epiphone basses, all good.Scott

According to a Fender rep, these are what came on the Fender PJ bass I ordered from Musician's Friend. They produce the classic Fender tone I wanted. I eventually replaced them with a set of Fender 7250L (.040, .060, .080, .100) to make it easier to play on the guitar's 9.5" fingerboard radius. I stayed with Fender because of the tone that the 7250M strings produce. The Light's have slightly less oomph on the low end, yet all the tone while the lighter gauge makes for nice melodic work on the high end of things. If you have a Fender bass and want Fender tone…Vice
