Help me out.

The Raptors are pretty cool guitars. However, do yo have any effects pedals? Maybe a distortion or a boost pedal of some sort? These can make the Raptor sound much better and the best part...you will probably keep and use those pedals long after you upgrade to a better guitar. I wonder if it worth dropping $100 - $150 in pickups into that guitar?

If you go to sell that guitar later with the pickup upgrades you still won't get that much for the whole package just because of the level of the guitar. Yes you could pull out what ever you put in there, but what if it is years later and you can't find the original pups to put back into it, or the new guitar that you buy has great pickups in it already. Then you'll just have pickups sitting around doing nothing.

I'd advise looking into a Digitech Bad Monkey to make that Raptor sing and hold out for a guitar upgrade as your playing and interest evolve.

At least one guy stays on topic
Well, I was thinking no matter even if in years I will get a new guitar, Ill just put in these pickups because Ill always change stock pickups. I dont know if its worth like 500 dollars of my money to buy a new guitar right now when I can get a new pickups that will fix it up a lot. The amp im getting is really good and It will bring up the raptor.

Well, All the pickups are useless except for the humbucker. Im not exagerating. They just cant be used, its the most annoying sound ever. Aswell, I cannot get a good clean sound at all. When I play clean, it actually hurts my ears listening to any of the settings. But I bet with switching amps the guitar will sound much better. My amp is a kustom KGA10 BTW.

Thanks again for all your replies.
