Recommendation please...
I'm looking for a guitar to put a hipshot trilogy bridge on. Basically I want to get a cheap beater guitar (means ~$400 USD) which has a strong neck that can handle the additional tension.
I would like something that has both humbuckers single coil (so coil tap is good).
I prefer semi hollowbody... I like the resonance.
Anyone have experience with the chinese cheapies out there? Will the necks handle the additional tension? Or should I not worry about it, maybe most modern guitars can handle the additional tension?
If you don't know the trilogy:
Trilogy > Store > Hipshot Products
I could just get something like this and replace the pickups:
SX Furrian / H / RN NA Semi Hollow - RondoMusic.com
Beater, indeed... do these play as poorly as one might expect?
