So I have been browsing the pickups and bridges and guitar repair places. I guess my only conern now is, if I but pickups x 3, a new bridge, shipping and then pay the guitar repair shop to do all the work...woudl it be better if I just spent $300 on a new guitar
$300 gets you a cheap guitar made of cheap parts. Imo, the worst thing about cheap guitars is the pickups and setup.

I walk the line
You should take it to
Hard2Hear's shop.
He's in your area. Greater Cincy.
BTW, you wouldn't happen to be in Covington, would you?
We go there to visit a friend every once in awhile. We used to go to Riverfest every year, but I've missed a few lately.

Finally got my guitar back in shape.
Took it to a local repair guy who does great work. He cleaned it up a bit, put on a new bridge, put in 2 new single coil pickups that I bought at guitarfetish.com (thx cephus). Also got a humbucker there as well but I mistakenly got the neck position instead of the bridge position, so I had to buy a new humbucker. Ended up getting the Screaming Demon Lynch Seymour Duncan, sounds great
Also, he re-wired it from the factory settings and now seems to pretty darn solid. He made the tone knob a switch, so when I pull it up it changes the humbucker into a single coil, pretty neat ~
Anyways, heres some updated pics.
Enjoy!
