Help me pimp this cheap POS guitar i got for free

[controlled_voltage]

Thinking a new pup
Tuners…….

 

[Chubbs]

I'd throw some new pots and a new nut on it as both are cheap and impactful to "the tone".

Start a Who tribute band then smash it to end your first gig!

 

[John4021]

I'm trying to figure out WTF that Mailman Dan looking thing is behind the couch

 

[paulyc]

Marylin Monroe !!!

 

[Mudder]

I’d start with tuners and nut, get it nailed staying in tune.

 

[DanTravis62]

Gut the electronics for sure, but start with the nut especially. Then get the fret ends dressed. Then get it set up nice.

....then fuck with the tuners maybe, if youre one of those autists who has to have locking.

...and THEN, finally, fuck with the pickups.

Take it into guitar center,smash the manager over the head with it,then run out of the store with a Les Paul from the boutique room.

 

[Kordoba]

Punch a hole clean thru it.

 

[Kapo_Polenton]

I'd say go the opposite way and stick 1k into it. pickups, pots, wiring, new neck, new tuners, new hardware, new guitar body ... then reuse the strings.

 

[panhead]

Use it for a dart board

 

[ewill52]
