How come we can't buy EB accessories through the EB website? Is that a dealer protection thing? i.e., so EB doesn't compete with their dealers?

I never tried buying baked beans from the Heinz Factory, and I'm sure they wouldn't let me either.
No point in having a distribution network if all the advertising you do is just for yourself. How would any dealer be able to compete with that.
EB spend thier pennies making sure they're product is on shelves so that people can actually see them, try them, and then buy them.
can you imagine it,
Come buy a MM.
Yay, where can we try one?
Here at the factory!
Erm, but I'm halfway round the world! nvm, I'm gonna learn to play banjo instead.

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
EB straplocks are not currently available yet. All other things I recommend Pete DuBaldo.

I was wondering the same thing, but it seems we will be able to do so from what BP said!

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?

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!!

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.
