Great post Leonidas! I'm addicted to doing the same type of upgrades you've done to all my low budget guitars.

I'm almost done with my JagMaster conversion. I've installed Schaller locking tuners, a Fender MIM bridge with a Callaham steel block, DiMarzio pickups, and Elixir strings. So far, it's killer! Now I just want to refinish it and install an American Deluxe Strat neck on it. Ooooohhhhh baby!!!
