I can't see the avatar.
What we need to do is get a new nut for it.

For you you'd probably like a brass one.
Go to this website find some things you like. I'll send you some links though.

Yeah I'll cut the slots when I install it.
That way I can cut it to the string gauge you like.

Do you want to floyd it?
That require some major surgery.
If we floyde it then you'll need a locking nut.

The preamp. Clean and crunch right there. No questions asked. It'll boost the gain.
We'd need to route the control cavity, to add more room.

You'd need a battery as well.

Although there is a thing called black Ice. It replaces your Cap on your tone pot.

All the way up you get crunch. All the way down, clean.

The only thing youd lose is the ability to back the tone off, with a one volume one tone setup.

Hmmm
I don't think chrome covers would look good with the guitar. It'd change it's feel
Plus the covers tame your pickup some. So they don't sound as hot.
That's why I have open coils.

Your guitar though.

Well as far as the preamp goes, black Ice would be the way to go.
Might as well stic to pedals. But it's your choice.

It looks like a demon.
That guitar is not a female.

Some chrome rings would look good with the bridge.
Of course you can get gold to match the nut. Then replace the bridge.
