Any of you guys use this place? I rebuilt a banjo and used them. Looks like they have a great selection for those DIY people.

They were pretty fast with my order.

I got a mahogany body blank and a bookmatched flame maple top from them not too long ago and they shipped quick. Both came in in good shape. After that, I ordered some dyes and some wood glue. Came in fine but I found the same wood glue at Ace for $5.00 less than what I paid for it at StewMac. My fault for not price checking, just throwing that out there.

They do have some cool stuff though!

Great site, good stuff...very pricey, in my experience!

I've bought stuff from them over the years...nothing major, just odds-n-ends...switches, some tools, other parts....and I've never had a problem, and yes, they ship pretty quick.

I'm on their email list, so I always check out the new stuff and the sales. I see them more of a builder's supply than your typical musician's supply...but they cover both bases.

They're expensive, but they do have a lot of stuff that you're not going to find at Home Depot OR Guitar Center.
