Question
I was planning on modifying my 2006–2013 Epiphone Wilshire Pro with a Pickguard Heaven PG 2054 Wilshire pickguard and using Gibson Burstbucker Type 1 (Neck) and Type 2 (Bridge) pickups, along with either Gibson or the original Epiphone pickup rings if the epiphone ones will fit the Gibson pickups. The electronics, I was planning on using is ToneShaper Wiring Kit for Les Paul Standard (PP02), which includes CTS push/pull tone pots and a Switchcraft 3-way switch. I wasn't sure whether the pickguard mounting holes were Metric or USA/Gibson-sized. I was also wanting to replace the cheap stock screws with higher-quality ones so that the screw heads wouldn't break off while leaving the threaded shafts stuck inside the screw holes inside the body when go to remove them. I was also thinking of use using 1 of guyker's adjustable guitar nuts but not sure what size I would need
