“Pedal Pawn is a ‘rapidly’ growing boutique guitar effects Pedal brand here in the UK, hand building effects one at a time for players… by players! Our pedals can help transform your guitar tone into the tones you’ve had stuck inside your head for years! Rapid has been an integral part of our business from the get go 3 years ago, offering guaranteed next day delivery on any part we could ever need! Our first ever FUZZ prototype was made up by our now full time engineer ‘Kinky Keith’ consisting of a small parts order from Rapid & we’ve since grown to a demand we simply cannot fulfil 3 years on…”.

“Ashdown is a world leader in the design and manufacture of instrument amplification with a history stretching back over 40 years. As the designer and component buyer for Ashdown/Meters, I have been dealing with Rapid for as long as I can remember. There are several good reasons for this from personal service and relationship (that play a large part in this), a big emphasis on service, and Rapid never fail to deliver. From getting special parts sourcing and supply to ‘off the shelf’ components, our account manager is the best in the business.

Over the years, I have had dealings with all the major players in the component supply arena, and what I can tell you is that Rapid will not try to sell you components that are available on their partners’ websites for more money, unlike some of the major supply companies.

In all my dealings with Rapid, I have found them to be reliable, honest, and good value for money. Manufacturing is all about costs and obtaining the correct specification parts at the best possible prices. Rapid are very good in this regard and I know that they have managed through competitive pricing structures to help many manufacturers either start up or maintain UK manufacturing.

As one of the major component suppliers within the UK and with the service they offer, it is easy to see why they are successful and continue to be so.

Yes, there are small niggles with small details such as order codes changing, but this is not unique to Rapid and seems to be the Achille’s Heel of the component supply industry in general. The only time I have ever had to return components is when I have made a mess of the order! To anyone considering Rapid as a supplier I would suggest you give them a try …”

“The website was easy to use, and the components were all there. We wanted to have a supplier that had everything we needed in one place so that children or their parents wouldn't have to look at multiple sites. I also saw that you do things to support communities, and that is something that all companies should be doing in some way.”

“SoundLad Liverpool's greatest achievement to date, if you ask them, has been getting their company from "did you mean Poundland Liverpool" on the Google front page, to dominating it.

Their second, again if you ask them, is being asked to write a testimonial for Rapid Electronics.

Serious. Rapid know what you want and they'll get it to you before you've even de-tangled yourself from the soldering iron. We've found Rapid to be the gold standard for suppliers. I've worked in procurement of electronic components and related hardware for a long time, long before I decided to start a guitar pedal company, and I've never had a supplier say to me, "eh Marc, what do you think we should get in?"

Their personal approach, solid pricing, and what I can only describe as hunger to be the best at what they do makes them easily one of the best companies I have worked with. I'm always gutted when I find a part they don't sell because it means I've got to deal with somebody else. Doesn't happen very often mind, but the way they work I can't see it being long before we don't have to bother.”
