Our Story
Founded in 1982, Allparts® supplies manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, repair shops, educators and tone enthusiasts worldwide with high-quality parts for guitar, bass and other stringed instruments. Offering premium brands like CTS®, Switchcraft®, Bigsby®, Badass®, Grover®, and many more, we’ve become the industry’s home of “premium tools for tone.” Headquartered in Houston, TX, we continue to grow and build on our reputation for unparalleled expertise, selection, and service.
Our Inspiration
At Allparts, everything starts with quality. We built this company around a simple standard: "Premium Tools for Tone". Every product we carry has to earn that label. If it does not meet the bar, it does not make the cut. Our mission has always been to make high-quality parts accessible to everyone who works on fretted instruments. Whether you are running a repair shop, building custom guitars, upgrading your own rig, or just trying to make your favorite instrument play and sound the way you always imagined it could, Allparts exists to make that possible. We are inspired by the builders, techs, players, and dreamers who have shaped lutherie, playability, and musical expression into the craft it is today. Their passion drives everything we do. And we are committed to fueling the next generation of innovators and tone chasers with the same quality and access that has defined Allparts from the beginning.
Our Values
At our core, we’re players, techs, luthiers and creatives that are deeply passionate about stringed instrument parts. We understand tone and how every component influences the playing experience. We’re not just a guitar parts company; we’re part of the community. We have complete conviction around enhancing the aftermarket repair and modification experience for both players and techs, and we thrive on collaboration with our vendors, retail and OEM partners, distributors, and artists. We embrace evolving musical tastes, emerging technologies, complex customer needs, and market shifts and pride ourselves on our adaptability. Rather than follow trends, we lead them, introducing innovative products and programs that builders, techs, and players will love. Above all, we’re accountable to our customers, employees, and partners, and for shaping our own future. We’re grateful for the trust placed in us, and we never take it for granted.
