Upgrade quality tuners for a 12-string range from about $99-$300. The $99 set is actually very good. String sets are $9.99. Depending on what kind of tuners are on it now, the labor would run between $49-$79 for everything. Let me know if you’re interested and thanks for calling on me.

So I’m interested in options so that I can keep it or deciding that the other would be worth the additional investment. since it would be about 150-200 price difference in with shipping. Thanks Joe

This is a very subjective question. The second guitar sounds like its a little fancier that the first. The electronics on them are probably about the same, so, whichever you decide on purchasing, that would be the best place to start for improvements, after you receive the guitar. I’m sure that a proper Set-Up Pkg. would be a great improvement on both, as well. Let me know when you receive it and we can talk about options. Thanks -=Joe

Here is the spec sheet for it. I currently have the first one below. I was wondering what you might be able to do to tweak it to make it better. I was thinking of sending it back to exchange with another model that has few different features or should I keep this and invest in a few changes. I’m mostly into the blues, classic rock feel and style of playing. Please let me know what you think. Thank you for your time.

The price for the complete job, including the pickup install, would be $79.95. I would prefer to do the whole thing, to insure that all goes well. -=Joe

What would you charge to route the bridge pickup, so I could install a humbucker, but I would like to keep the neck a P-90.
