I wish i had the getus to do it that way... though that is what i did for screws. I went to mcmaster and loaded up on all the screws i would need for guitaring. Better quality screws (all case hardened steel or stainless) that don't cam out, in bulk and cheaper than them fendah baggies.
If i had the money would just buy half dozen of everything and be set. I am really hurting for cash so just got the minimum i needed for this upgrade.
Socket, knobs, jack, 3-way: 49.45 ($6.50) Specialty
Saddles and pots: 42.70 (shipping $8.30) RS
a SINGLE Blender pot: $24.15 (shipping $9.15 ouch! what a gouge) Mojo
I have a bridge plate here it turns out and plenty of caps (i am an "any cap that measure correct will do kind of guy) ... I shouldn't have gone with the Mojo,but my intent was to save a little by getting the gotoh knobs from them too, but silly me forgot to get them.
$116 to do the hardware totally over from scratch (not p/ups obviously) but a whopping $23.95 in shipping... Part ways my fault for being insistent on that mojo pot (both mojo and RS have the premium pots with nice taper)
Kudos to Specialty for:
1. not gouging on shipping
2. being as close to one stop shopping as i have found.
