Also anyone know where I can find those spare parts for a Les Paul? Parts such as knobs, switches (Treble/Rhythem) and other accessories?
I heard of Woh Fatt but anywhere else besides them?
Thanks in advance

Does anyone here know of a good luthier who can actually do a good maintenance on the wiring and electronic set up of a Les Paul?

We had a thread on this topic some time back.
Search Results for "luthiers" I think those threads will help you out. |

Tham
012-2350670 I think there are few of us here who send their guitars to him. He might have some spare parts ordered from Stew Mac so try giving him a call. |

Where is he located? I was planning on checking out Woh Fatt this Saturday and then head over to quite a number of guitar shops.
Bringing my Japanese friends to look for some guitars. |

Jalan Gasing, just give him a ring before weekend. From what I've heard, he is a very reputable guitar tech.
You can ask everdying or monny, they both have sent their guitars to him. |

Just ask Blacktrix how they miswired his pickups into the wrong knob.
Or was that Bentley's? |

how the top of the frets are shaped and its height from the fretboard.
i like the low height of those vintage thin frets, but the width of medium jumbos. |
