How do you like it? Happen to know how the body is routed for the neck pickup?


I like how it has the body contours, but wanna put a humbucker in the neck.


Thanks for any help

 

 

I have no help to offer. I am interested in the answer, though, as I've been considering the same thing...

I have one. I absolutely love it. Bound satin finished maple neck, jumbo frets, nice contoured Ash body, tuners are great. Mine was routed for a humbucker in the neck. I stained mine and upgraded the wiring harness, GFS vintage Alnico pickups, tusq nut, white pickguard, and stainless steel saddles. I also leveled and dressed the frets. I have about $200 invested and I would put this thing up against any MIM and some MIA Fenders- no {censored}.

 

Completely Modded (Pre-Stain)

After the Stain (Doesn't look it in the pics- but it's a pretty drastic change in person)

You can't go wrong- even if you upgrade everything on it. The body and neck are worth the price alone.

BTW, out of the box- this thing was pretty decent. I think all guitars need a set-up though so that is a non-issue for me. Still, the stock pickups and electronics weren't bad at all- I just wanted better quality components and could do it for an additional $75 or so.
