How come we can't buy EB accessories through the EB website?

[greenwizard]

Actually thanks boys but we are about to launch a part of our website that allows any EB accessory to be purchased on the web site. It is a new concept that allows dealers to ship the order and if no dealer wnats the order we ship it. It is called Shopatron

I am officially stoopid.

Not true oh large Tony man. You're reasoning was correct as far as guitars go, which is why EB won't sell guitars online. And notice that theyre not bypassing dealers even as far as accessories go, unless no dealer will ship. Everybody wins!! !

What counts as an accessory? Can I buy a whole bunch of guitar parts and put them together myself? :-)

Seriously, I'll finally be able to get EB Mandolin strings?

Hi DrKev,

I know they're not in the top 10 products that our French distributor imports, but they have purchased mandolin strings. Give High Tech a call at (0) 1 690 20 101 and they can help you find a dealer that has these in stock or help facilitate your local dealer getting them with their next delivery of EB product.

Cheers!

Will the SHopatron be available worldwide or is it just a US thing?

It's only for the U.S. at this time.........but as the needs of the world change, so does the way business operates.

Now that is cool, great idea, hope this includes the new line of EB/MM hawian shirts , but love the ability to buy accessories direct, guitars from DuBaldo Music other goodies direct, great idea

That sounds like a win-win scenario for EB and their dealers. That's great for us too, because we won't have to search for a dealer with a particular item in stock. Take, for instance, jongitarz telling me to buy EB guitar cords. I never see them at GC. I never see them at the local independents. Heck, I used to not be able to find EB guitar polish or even a simple thing like a polypro strap. It's all Pl@net W@ves. If dealers don't stock the EB stuff, how am I going to get them? I'd have to special order or find an internet source. Anyway, thanks, BP, for the heads-up. Sounds like a really cool idea.

Yeah, I try to buy all 3 wonder wipe and a strap lock. But Guitarcenter.com doesn't caary the strap lock. Anyone where can I buy all of these online?

Hey Poj,

I remember you from the JVM forum. The straplocks are not available yet so nobody will have them. A local dealer near you should be able to get the Wonder Wipes if they are available overseas (they're available here). I can't say anything nice about Guitar Center so I won't, but it generally takes them longer to get stuff than independent dealers.

Thanks.

I can have my sister who lives in Michigan buy it for me. But I will try to buy it online myself first and let they ship to my sister's address.

Is the guitarcenter.com that terrible?
I plan to order peterson tuner, 3 wonder wipe and a Shure SM57 microphone from them.
Should I avoid guitarcenter and buy from someplace else?
Which online store you guys recommend?
