BC Rich Warlock SE Body Repair and Electronics Upgrade

This BC Rich Warlock SE guitar had a set neck and strings-through-body design. The only problem was that over the years, an unsightly gap had developed all around the perimeter of the neck heel. My job was to eliminate the gap and make it look presentable. This I did by filling the gap with StewMac ColorTone Clear Grain Filler, sealing the perimeter with super glue, leveling it with successive finer grits of abrasive paper; followed by a good polishing. The stock electronics, save for the BHC neck and bridge humbuckers; were upgraded to Alpha A500K pots and a Neutrik/Rean NYS229 output jack. Kudos to BC Rich for shielding the pickup and control cavities with conductive paint, albeit with no grounding tab.

2010 PRS 25th Anniversary Santana Electric Guitar

Intro
This gorgeous fire red burst PRS belongs to bro Shafie of Kuantan's River Blues Band. He sent it to me for a string change, setup, de-gunking and polishing. Seems that nickel plating does not hold up against the salty sea air as well as chrome. In any case, since it was already in my hands, I decided to open her up and take some pics. But first, a few specs for your perusal.
