A Huge Range of Guitar Pickups and Parts for Electric, Acoustic and Bass Guitars.

Guitar Parts Shop is an electric guitar, bass guitar and acoustic guitar pickup and parts specialist. We are UK authorised dealers for all the major brands, we have good stocks and we offer great prices.

Great tone is what every guitarist needs - the guitar pickups you use are the key. The original Gibson P90 and PAF humbucker, fitted to Gibson's Les Paul model, and the Telecaster and Stratocaster single coil guitar pickups are the pickups that defined the sound of the modern electric guitar. As Gibson and Fender have struggled to replicate the sounds of their original guitar pickups a wide range of manufacturers like Seymour Duncan, DiMarzio, EMG, Rio Grande and Bare Knuckle have sprung up to provide guitar pickups that can replicate these classics as well as provide new sounds. We sell them all and can help you get the tone you want. We also supply a range of guitar parts to help you make, repair and customise your guitar or bass.

The ultimate Telecaster upgrade pickups are Joe Barden Danny Gatton T-Style pickups We have just started to stock the Joe Barden range. They're expensive but perfection doesn't come cheap!

We sell Grade A, new stock supplied by the official importer- ever wondered why one or two retailers offer prices that seem too good to be true? It's probably because they are. We do occasionally sell Grade B stock that is ex-demo, etc but we describe it as such and sell it at great prices through our Clearance Section - don't be fooled!!!

STOP PRESS - NEW LOW PRICES on DiMARZIO. Now there's no need to take the risk on buying from the US or Europe to save a few quid. The weaker US Dollar has meant that we can get official UK imported stock cheaper and pass the savings on to our customers.!!

STOP PRESS - New Range of Guitar Books, DVDs and guitar-related software - check out our new section!!
