Last year I bought an Harley Benton Telecaster and I loved it right away. Today I'm going to make it even better by upgrading its weak spots like the tuners, the electronics and the plastic nut. I'm also going to mod the wiring with a 4-way switch and adding a "pickup in series" mode.
Wish me luck.
Nice! Love to see this! I’m rereupgrading my first electric guitar. It’s a budget strat. I redid a bunch of things on it in 2020 but I miss the stock pickups. They had a tone quality I haven’t been able to replicate on any other guitar. I’m also returning it to mostly its original look with a new pick guard that has the same style. And I really wanted locking tuners like my Charvel has. Also thinking of sanding down the back of the neck to remove the glossy finish. I’ll keep the 2020 upgrades attached to the old pick guard and do hot swaps when I get bored with the new setup. Excited to see stuff like this, maybe I’ll share my rebuild with this group!
