Brads Guitar Mods are what it says in the box. These are my thoughts & ideas to help inspire you with your own guitar mods.
You will find everything you need to upgrade and modify your electric guitar or bass. From wiring harness & pickup upgrade packs. To Strat & Tele replacement necks. Along with some other things that just think are really helpful in completing your own guitar builds or modifications
I have always loved to try and find tones I have in my mind, for specific type of players, or playing styles. Now that I have created Tone Merchants. A company that was the result of sheer frustrations at the lack of options available for people like me down here in the South Pacific. I get to have fun. So i have put together guitar and bass upgrade packs to make things easier for you and get you going in the right direction for the type of tones you want to achieve.
All components and parts are carefully considered in each guitar mod. I’m lucky enough to represent some of the best pickup & components brands in the business. From Lindy Fralin Pickups & Emerson 1050’s style wiring. To my own Tone Merchants Wiring & modern humbuckers from Railhammer Pickups. I like to think i have most of the basses covered!
So keep an eye on this category and our Facebook page for one off modified instruments, replacement guitar necks & bodies for your own guitar kit set build projects. I might just have something that was just meant for you.

ExcellentBased on 49 reviewsJoshua Haslemore17 August 2024I cannot recommend Brad at Tone Merchants enough. I picked up an Ibanez AS73 and have been looking to really get some life into it. I am by no means a guitar tech expert in any way shape or form. After doing a bit of research on what I was after, Brad took me through some options to help get the best out of this guitar. Came back with some gorgeous Lollar Imperials and even split coil for fun. The end result far exceeded my expectations. A completely different guitar and a super easy process to get sorted. Brad is great at communicating and helping you get what you are after if you're thinking about making some upgrades or adjustments to your guitar(s), go see Brad!Patricia Danielle Tan13 August 2024Amazing product range hard to find elsewhere in NZ, with responsive and friendly service to go with super quick shipping for in stock items. Highly recommended :)Tim Burrell26 July 2024Great communication. Prompt delivery. A+Andy Cheal22 July 2024Brad at Tone Merchants is awesome to deal with, up front, honest, friendly and great communication. I will not hesitate to use him again in the future or recommend him to anyone.moose20 July 2024Great local store sourcing in hard to get parts from abroad. Great seller, really smooth service and was even kind enough to throw in a great recommendation for a local luthier to fit the parts.Shane Hinton16 July 2024Brad has been super helpful and responsive aiding my various tone quests, starting with Fralin pickups and more recently, some Genzler amplification. It’s great to deal with someone so passionate and knowledgeable about their products and willing to go the extra mile for his customers. Good things!Doug Watt11 July 2024I brought an Aria bass from Tone Merchants. The process was effortless, good communications, fast shipping and the bass was securely packaged. I am very pleased with the bass, it is exactly as described. I recommend Tone Merchants.Simon Lorimer9 July 2024Very happy with the Wenge neck I ordered. Arrived within 24 hrs.
