Years ago, in addition to guitar amplifier parts Studio Sound Electronics also stocked the following consumer electronics parts (from 1997 until 2017):

  • VCR Parts and Belts

  • Cassette Deck Belts

  • Cassette Motors

  • CD Player Laser Pickups and Belts

  • Turntable Needles, Cartridges and Belts


Today, we no longer carry the above items, except for a few closeout exceptions (see below).
  
Also see below for alternate sources.
 

By 2017, it became apparent that demand for these products had fallen significantly.  In addition, availability of these parts from manufacturers had also declined.   So, in April 2017 we discontinued carrying belts and parts for consumer audio and video products.   We continue to provide a variety of parts for guitar amplifiers and effects pedals.

Today, you can continue to find some parts for cassette decks, turntables, CD players and VCRs from the following sources:
