Trick out my SG Special?

[Supercreep]

I've got a stock Gibson SG Special in black.

I aim to fix her up some - What sorts of things can I do to make this guitar better for my classic rock playing ass?

IHNFI.

Toss the 490's and put in a set of Burstbuckers. Ive put them in 3 SGs and they give THE sound of what I look for in an SG. I even replaced some vintage "T tops" with them and they sounded much better.

What about pots/wiring?

bone or brass or graphite or rolling nut?
