Personally, would swap for solid candy red or cherry red pick guard, raise the pups a bit, straplocks if it dont have em already and i'd be set! Have the classic vibe duo sonic with the same color scheme and pickguard, it looks good but I always saw it as kind of a cheesey color scheme. :roll:

Why would you raise the pickups?

They're pretty hot already. Haven't altered the setup at all, but they sound great.

Did a demo before i fit Lollars, Blocks + Binding and a Fender decal..

Sounds good in stock form, nothing needs changing in my opinion.

Thanks. I got the tone about right but that solo (like most of his) is a bit wild, its difficult to copy exact and doesn't sound right without the rhythm track behind it.

You've got the closest I've ever heard - always think his tonez sound a lot like an electric violin. V good Francis.
