crust Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I wanted to upgrade a tom delonge signature with the following: Switchcraft jack CTS 500k pot gibson abr 1 bridge gibson stopbar tailpiece TUSQ XL epiphone nut Would making these upgrades be wise or it would it be a waste of time and money? Waste of time and money...but, what else is $$ good for ? ? ...you know...it's only paper... If you are happy with the results (it sounds to me like you did a bit of homework/research for upgrade/modifications), you'll probably never get (monetarily-wise) back what you put into it...but, if the modifications make it play, sound and feel better, and make you pick it up and plunk a few tunes out on it more than without doing any changes to it. Then, personally, to me, I'd certainly say it was "worth it" imho. To me, all guitars are a waste of time and money...I like wasteing time, and money, on guitars, modifications, amps and effects. But, that's just me. So many guitars...so little time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeman Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Gibson bridge is imperial and epiphone is metric. Not quite the same size. Beware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creekster52 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I agree with deeman. The Gibson bridge and stop bar will not be a direct replacement. There are better alternatives out there anyway, and available in the correct metric stud sizes (M8). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
