I have a Lake Placid Blue Bullet Strat SSS HT arriving today that I bought (brand new) as my first guitar to modify. I’m also waiting on a new pickguard and a Seymour Duncan SH-6 to arrive as my first change. After that, I’m going to look into single coils to put in the neck and middle positions. I mainly play black metal (hence the SH-6), but also shoegaze, emo, goth, and general rock and stuff.
So, any suggestions for things to do? Could be for the guitar in general, or those specific genres. Any suggestions are welcome!
Yeah, it’s great to be able to roll some of the icepick off of the bridge pickup. Much more flexible.
