Cure A Boring Guitar and Make It Awesome Again!

#addictedtogear #guitarmods
Transforming your guitar playing from mundane to exhilarating can be achieved with just a couple of easy modifications. Experimenting with different mods can significantly alter the feel and sound of your instrument, making playing more enjoyable and dynamic. These two easy mods can breathe new life into your guitar playing, making it more exciting and inspiring without requiring extensive effort or expense.
FYI: The playing samples were done via my Marshall Studio Vintage head into my Marshall 4x12 cabinet loaded with Celesstion 65 speakers and It was mic'd up with a Fathead ribbon mic going into my Focusrite Scarlett Daw.

One of my favorite pastimes is upgrading mid to low end guitars. Sometimes I too, end up with a guitar that the parts cost more than the guitar. But, it is fun and the guitar turns out better and with it’s own “personality”

[@mylogify]

Nice upgrades! I installed a Dimarzio Rails(Fast Tracker 2) to my Harley Benton ST-62 on the bridge, and Tusq nut, and got the frets leveled, now I like it.... No upgrades to bridge and tuners yet... Because I don't need, in my home use..... No gigging at all.....

[@DeeTee79]

This is my new favourite channel, pretty sure it’s local too 🇨🇦!

[@DominionFretWorks]

KRAMER ! ! ! ! ! ! Love my Kramer's ! and your right that model is the MOD - Platform Fun Guitar ! great video Tony ! Sorry I missed the LIVE SHOW this weekend.... Was at a friend's wedding up in PA... BUT, I did watch 100% on the way home !

[@saintbrando]

Tony, you’re one of those guys that cuts the strings instead of winding them out?! That’s exciting KZbin content…you got my OCD running amok! lol!!

[@mylogify]

Hahaha, I have never seen anyone on KZbin pulling strings out, that's what I'd %100 do to save strings if I can :D :D.

[@Rico__B]

Great video & upgrades. Always enjoy your Workbench uploads.

[@vinniesworld459]

Missed the show on Sunday. Hey, if a lull in new shiny things are videos like this, then I'm all for it!!! This was a really fun video.

[@shanewalton8888]

That decal looks awesome. I had a Kramer when I as 16, but don't really want one now.

[@shanewalton8888]

Who else is playing a Telecaster while watching Tony pimp this Superstrat? lol

[@Voxguitarsrock]

Yep

[@user-uo9cy2ep2h]

Yes! I think starts are hideous. EVERYONE plays one, fucking boring!!

[@mylogify]

400 Euro bridge randomly lying around the house? hahahah never been a better time to use it! Lol

[@Barbarapape]

Tony doesn't have to pay for the free samples. Lucky for him !

[@mylogify]

@@Barbarapape Yes, now I keep watching the vid. it's always fun these upgrades.

[@eddiejr540]

Awesome stuff Tony…always love the messy workbench 👍

[@addictedtogear]

Thanks 👍

[@eddiejr540]

I wish I had a Vega trem “just” lying around 🤣

[@mylogify]

I'd use the same strings even after removing them from the guitar :P. It's just me :D :D, and being more budget...... They'd turn out good actually.

[@RevGerryRM]

I would also put a Floyd Rose tremolo and locking nut.

[@addictedtogear]

I didn’t want to have to route the trek cavity and risk ruining the paint finish. Vegatrem was a much simpler alternative.

[@Barbarapape]

If that Vega trem doesn't improve it nothing will. Great trems but grossly overpriced. A Wilkinson trem would have been a better choice price wise. I prefer Gotoh ones if you want a floating trem at a sensible price.

[@mylogify]

Yes, or maybe making it DIY and turn it to FR like EVH, I don't know how the finish would react to it though :D.

[@Barbarapape]

@@mylogify The finish would be ruined, EVH didn't see to bothered about the cosmetics of his attempts to modify them. You would need to use a router, then refinish the body or it would stick out like a sore thumb.

[@mylogify]

@@Barbarapape I don't know what kind of finish his guitar had when he did that, he bought the body as a separate part If I am not mistaken, and I don't know whether it was poly or Nitro, or just satin poly..... If it'd make differences..... Might not work these glossy Fender, Kramer poly finishes, maybe...

[@mykneeshurt8393]

The tiger stripes are a sticker? Where did you get it?

[@addictedtogear]

Check my past videos I did on this, its in the notes.

[@herboffiresidestudio9053]

Thanks for the video. Where did you get the zebra stripe decal ?

[@shanewalton8888]

Vega Trem stopped making lefty trems 🤥

[@addictedtogear]

That sucks
