Aside from my other thread (about possibly getting a Chibson in place of the Tele and Washburn) the other thing that I'm really keen on is sorting out a really cheap shit old strat copy that I have.
Its quite a thin body; made by Encore - its the guitar that I learned to play on.
Not sure if it will need a new neck, I think I wore the fuck out of the frets and I really don't think its worth re-fretting.
Was thinking of modelling it on a Kurt Cobain guitar, which was the reason I bought it in the first place (I was 14 at the time):

I don't want to throw shit loads of cash at this guitar 'cos its never gonna be great. But the stuff that's on it at the moment is beyond shit.
I'll be installing a JB in the bridge position (but that's the only quality part that'll be going on it)
Does anyone know where I can get "acceptable" quality stuff like, pots, knobs, bridges, pickups and switches, maybe unbranded stuff - but decent and playable. Pretty much the only "original" bit I expect to be left with on this guitar is the body.
