Hey everyone,
I know this topic came up a while back when I wasn't interested in them, but does anyone know the cheapest supplier of carbon rods? TIA!

If I used more than a dozen a year id look else where - but for my limited 4 to 6 geetars a year - stewmac does just fine - I usualy add them to an order so im not paying shipping JUST for them.

lmi has reasonable prices on these and offers the best selection of sizes of any of the usual suspects.

and as lance points out, often the best solution for a low usage item is to include in other orders to avoid extra shipping charges which can erase price differentials.

Thanks for the links John. I'll definitely bookmark these for future reference. The prices on the first link look great compared to StewMac's. Don A38467.6330208333
