Was checking CL yesterday and found this LP junior, and he was asking less than what half a tank of gas costs me here in California. A few texts and an hour of my time later and she's mine. Hardly a mark or scratch on it. After adjusting the action she plays well enough, and after checking the intonation it looks like I can get it adjusted with the stock bridge. The tuners are not good,especially the G. Not planning to put a lot of $$ into this, but I probably need some better tuners. I already have a Tusq nut that should fit. I plan to take the neck off, give it a fret level crown and polish, smooth the fret ends, etc., and oil the fretboard. Then perhaps throw in some CTS pots, and a new jack, and maybe see if I can split the coil on the pup or switch the magnet to an alnico. If I had to guess I'd say the pup was fairly hot with a ceramic magnet. I kinda like it. Maybe I'll just keep it as is. Damn, I love cheep guitars!
