Hi Valery! Terribly sorry for not replying sooner. I don’t have notifications set up and didn’t realise you had commented. I assume you found the information you needed but in case you didn’t here goes...

-volume and tone knobs: they will  have to be metric if you aren’t replacing the pots. They’re easy to find on ebay

-knob pointers: as far as I know any will fit. It’s not a real snug fit on the post, they are held in place by the nut

-nut: the nut and the electronics were done by a guitar tech

-truss rod cover: that took a bit of modding. I used a small piece of cork painted black to go in the hole for the truss rod for on screw and made a new screw hole for the other. A little dab of paint in the existing screw holes makes them barely noticeable

-tuners: vintage style klusons fit the existing hole. Modern grovers with the nut and washer would require enlarging the hole

-pickguard: this was the trickiest bit. If you want to use the same bracket there are options available on eBay. Be sure to measure the distance between you pickups. I’m not certain a dot replacement pickguard will fit without modification

-pickup surround screws: I bought from Stew Mac. If I remember correctly I bought two different lengths

-pickup selector switch: if you just want to replace the tip you’ll need to buy metric. Standard Gibson won’t fit

Hope this helps. Again sorry for the late reply

Hi where did you get the pickguard from.
