I changed some plastic on my American Special. I also changed out the tuners for Locking tuners. Thought I'd share.

Nice axe rkreisher! They both look great, but the black gives it a kind of "bad boy" look. 8)

i like it. if it were mine, i would have done a blk pickguard.
theres something about a red guitar with a blk pickguard and the chrome just sets everything off.
