Well, I bought another Maricela Juarez Invader. Hopefully it'll be 22K like my old one was, but yea, I just pulled the trigger on it because it was cheaper than the other one. Model was made between 82 and 84. My old one was 81.

Dropping it in the Charvel. I think I'm gonna keep it V/T and super simple instead. This pickup os one of the only SD models I can back. When cranked, it turns anything into a wall of sound.

I may look for a new neck. I'm in love with the feel, but I hate the fact that the adjustment is in the heel.

If I got a new neck, it'd definitely be maple. Charvel necks are really surprisingly cheap for a MIJ one in good shape.

Great shape. Usually these are thrashed. Well, looks like I'll be the one to thrash it.

Red button kill switch came today. Installed it. Had to enlarge the hole in the pg, but it looks good.

Pickup shipped. I figure I'll tear the guitar down once the Guild is back and I have all the parts here.
