Reed 3P dealer


Does anyone know of a Reed dealer who can actually obtain and sell any 3P variation by getting the arms from Lithuania (rather than relying upon the dealer's inventory)?
Why do I ask? I have a 3P and love it. It so impressed a very knowledgeable friend of mine that he wants one. He can't find a dealer who can sell him his choice of the wood and hardware finish.

You have to contact Reed directly and buy from them. That's what i did several years ago with my "12 3P Cocobolo, i even went to Lithuania for vacation to meet up with Reed crew. If you already have an official distributor in your country it can be another story (but you can tell them the distributor does not have what you need), you can ask them first by email, check on their site.  
It would be impossible for any local dealer to keep up with the variations available on Reed  tonearms. I think I once counted that there were six types of wood, at least three different finishes, and other options for wiring. If you calculate it out, I believe you would find that there are 30 or 40 variations for each model of tonearm. Thus it is quite probable that most people will end up either going straight to the factory or placing an order with a dealer or distributor and waiting for his or her tonearm to arrive once it has been ordered and paid for. I got mine via the auspices of one of our own colleagues here on the analog for him. 
@chakster ,

If you had the opportunity to make your Reed purchase again, would you go with the 12” or a shorter length? Just curious.
