Hi all-
Any recommendations on good sources for electronic components and supplies for guitar builds? Stew Mac has a fair amount of CTS and Alpha pots and such, but finding long shaft linear and tapered 1meg pots seems to be a challenge. Also, I've seen some miniature jack plugs (male and female) used on some builds for the pickups wiring- this could be a boon for some builds. Any suggestions out there on sources for stuff like this, and other off the wall electronics supplies? Thanks!

Mouser, guitarelectronics.com, Small Bear, Allparts, and occasionally Pedal Parts Plus I've all used before with good results. Mouser is more general electronics, but as far as I'm concerned, if they don't have it, it doesn't exist

Tayda is cheap if you don't mind waiting.

Just a heads up - there's a sticky in both the Amps and Effects section of this site dedicated to component sourcing.

Thanks so much! Mouser sounds promising- I'll check them all out!
