yeah, yeah, i know: "not worth it, get a new guitar." i'll be doing a custom Warmoth probably later this year, right now my concern lays with the Beast i already have. tuning is my #1 concern.
thoughts on upgrades so far to give you an idea:
*Dimarzio Humbucker from Hell OR Tone Zone as only pickup (i'm not going to buy 2 for this P.O.S.)
*new bridge/nut/tuners (whatever combination will work)
basically, i'm just in the dark on what, if anything, will give me immaculate tuning on this guitar. is a stable tuning setup possible with this cheap "wood," or is it an unachievable dream? i've got money, that's not an issue, but if i can purchase materials for a new guitar for $650 i don't really want to spend anywhere near that to fix this. $150-200 would be the max on this thing, and that's a stretch.....
....anyone care to make an attempt? i'm open to any suggestions. i'm more comfortable on this guitar than most i've ever played, so i'd prefer to keep it as the back-up even when i upgrade.
