I agree about the bridge and hardware - easily changed though. Have a look at axecaster or axesrus. I’d go for a gotoh bridge with compensated saddles.
Parchment. Or Black.
Regarding pickups- if you go this route, chat to Ash at OilCity or Marc at Mojo. Both do amazing things for reasonable prices.
What kind of budget are you thinking of putting into it?
I think probably £200 tops to put into it.
Is the bridge a easy swap? I assume the screws would line up. This is mexican tele.
If it were me, I'd go parchment pickguard, p90 in the neck (HB size if you don't fancy routing) and replace bridge and controls with something more trad.
But that's just me!
Maybe a white scratchplate and chrome control plate.
Wood can be glued in to fill the tele pickup 'bays' - humbucker holes and a battery box can be cut out.
Like this, only with out a 'stupid' selector switch, but a toggle switch instead.
As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
