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

Before:



Now:





The tuners, I blurred out my SN for GP:



And a big pic...Sorry:

wonder how she would look if you kept the white controls with the black pups..........It all looks good to me...nice axe my friend

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

The black really pops. Looks great.

the vacuum store is a lot like the guitar store. but they do not attract the same clientele as the guitar store, cause if they did, the vacuum store would be loaded with a bunch of broke guys who just wanted to run the new vacuums.

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.

Yeah, I have a similar axe with the white hardware but I'm loving the black hardware, looks great (might do the change myself)

Looks good, but did it give it a darker tone?

looks like im in the minority, i think it looks so much better with the white...

but as long as youre happy, it's your guitar, not mine!

Cool changes - - I'd change the guard now too.
