Replaced the pots with CTS and a decent switch, utter bastard to get everything in through the f holes, but I got better at it after a wire became detached and it all had to come out again, deffo worth the effort as it transformed the guitar, which ironically, I now never play as I prefer Fender style, but you live and learn and its no fault of the guitar.....

In terms of change in tone, I can’t remember exactly how it sounded before but now it’s fab. It has that gentle slightly microphonic ringing as the note decays, deeply musical and very articulate. It has much more in common with the sound from my Les Paul gold top than the muddy sound of my epi Les Paul.
The only but I haven’t dialled out it lots and lots of bass in the rhythm pos, but a tweak to poles or pickup height should sort this.
But for £289 for the guitar, (a while back) and £90 for the pickups - it’s way more than the sum of its parts.
