Hi guys!!!

Both guitars use the same cavity for the "Elite" PCB.

The Powerhouse's mid-boost circuit is the same as the Clapton, except the gain is reduced to 12dB by a pair of resistors and the TBX pot is replaced by a No-Load tone circuit. Clip the resistors to unlock the full 25dB boost, remove the stock pickups with the dummy coil & No-Load pot and stick a set of Vintage Noiseless pickups with the TBX, there's not necessary to replace the PCB.

Certainly.

Mighty Mite necks could fit into almost any standard Strat body - unless you decide putting them into either a 70s 3-bolt or an American Deluxe body, then some alterations may be required.
