The RC Stromm T-Style Thinline featured in this post came in for some fretwork, headstock mod, setup; as well as an electronics upgrade. Fretwork was focused on rounding off sharp fret ends. Electronics upgrades included swapping the stock pickups for a set taken from a Squier Classic Vibe Telecaster. Besides this, pots were upgraded to Alpha A250Ks, the tone cap to a 0.022uF K73-16, selector switch to an Oak Grigsby; and output jack to a Switchcraft. Sadly, as the budget was insufficient for a full shielding job, all I could do was add under-pickguard copper foil shielding; on the house.
