First Upgrade

I performed the first upgrade to the guitar. I installed a set of Schaller locking tuners.


I would like the guitar in its finished form to have locking tuners and I had them sitting around (I was going to install them on a Strat, but changed my mind). In this case, the upgrade benefit is two fold: the stability of the tuning is way better and taking the strings off and putting them back on is much easier. The tuning stability is less of a concern right now, but the ease of taking strings off and putting them back on is a huge win as I'll be playing with the electronics quite a bit (I expect a fair amount of iteration).

The funny part is these tuners cost more than the guitar...
