I buy directly from K&K and I think they made me a dealer. I don't sell them to others though. To become a dealer as a luthier, you need to prove to them you build and sell guitars. They wanted to see picts of my shop etc. I dealt with Christy. Here email address is christy@kksound.com |

Me too, I do a lot of installs but don't sell the pickup without the install. Great folks. Evan |

I am also through my music store. www.newbergmusiccenter.com The web site is in the process of renovation so the K&K's may not be up right now. GD |

just e-mail them and tell em you build guitars and they will, most likely, sell to you at dealer cost. That's what I did, and they are really great to work with. John |

Put me on that list too, Peter. I've been a dealer for about 3 years now. Echoing what John said ... they are great to work with! Really nice products. Best, Jim |

I am too, but it sounds like you have found enough dealers to keep you in product. |

Hi Peter, it is a pretty easy install so I usually charge $40 for a steel string and $60 for classical. The classical one is a bit trickier. My arm is not as skinny as it used to be 
Best, Evan |

evan, in due course, if you are like me, the arms will get skinnier but other dimensions will increase 
but i know what you mean about small soundholes. and increasing stiffness in fingers and wrists doesn't help either. |

Evan, what do you charge for installing the Trinity system with the bridge plate transducers plus the condenser mike (assuming the external preamp is used)? TIA |
|
| Author: | Evan Gluck [ Fri Nov 03, 2006 6:34 am ] |
| Post subject: | |
Hi Howard, I have never installed the Trinity yet, it seems like just an additional mic placement. Maybe another $20 to bring it up to $60. I tend to work in $20 increments. I would never do a side mounted preamp on any guitar. I have a list of ethical things I wont do to a guitar. Everything should be external. I am sure you agree. Best, Evan |
