    I changed the pups in my old JP. Keep in mind, it is YOUR guitar, do with it as you see fit.
    "Welcome to the addiction!" is now patented by Koogie2k......if used by anyone other than Koogie2k....you must mail him a US nickel for each time said/typed or signed.......

    Darren changed the knobs on his Lava Pearl JP7 to chrome. It looks niiiiiiiiice. I wanna do it, too, but I just like the shape of the stockers.

    On my JP:

    I changed the nut to standard spacing;
    Drilled the body out and installed flush mount Dunlop Straplocks
    Installed roller saddles at the bridge
    disconnected the tone control

    On my BFR LUKE:

    Zero changes

    20th Silo:

    Put in a coil splitting tone pot and switched the bridge pup to a Dimarzio Breed, and put the chrome cover from the original pup on it. Cosmetically no change at all.

    I like the low profile frets o the LUKE, makes it easy to slide to chords and notes

    I replaced the tone and volume knob on my Axis Supersport to chrome...

    They were (are) the only thing I don't like about it.
