Upgrading my guitar, anywher in South West - Somerset?
« on: January 31, 2011, 05:55:43 AM »
Hi guys, just wondering if anyone knows anywhere in the south west(Wiltshire-Somerset) which do quality guitar repair and customisation like Feline Guitars. Unfortunately they're based too far away for me to travel for an upgrade/repair job on my guitar.

I've got a Jackson Soloist Pro collecting dust, and it's a shame cause it's so nice to play. Basically want the licensed Floyd Rose to be swapped for an Original Floyd. Replace the the hardware with Chrome from the black. Get the electronics all replaced and have a general set up...

Finally I'd need some advice on the best suited pickups for my favourite types of music. Want to get Bareknuckles of course best for stuff like: Iron Savior, Savage Circus, Blind Guardian, Nightwish.

And get those put in too... Any advice is much appreciated!

For the stuff you want Kempsters in Swindon are pretty decent and not massively expensive (they did a trem swap and fitted a Tremel-no + setup for me for peanuts)

Swindon is a bus journey for me... Any idea on their costs?
