Why do you assume the guitar will need "upgrades"? Especially since you don't
even own it yet and, I assume, haven't played one enough (if at all) to determine
if such "upgrades" are necessary. If you haven't already guessed, I'm not a fan of
knee-jerk upgrades. After spending major bucks on tailpiece, bridge, pots, caps,
wires, nut and tuners, it'll still be pretty much the same guitar - your wallet will
just be lighter. But if it makes you feel better, go for it. Also, if you're into high
gain, DO NOT buy a Casino.
