In part 3 of our troubled 'Troublecaster' upgrade we try to concentrate and not screw things up with power tools and we test out a theory for hiding scratch-plate / pick-guard holes. It's a messy business this guitar modding and we can't help but wonder who is really in control?? 🤨👽 🎸

This Upgrade Should Have Been So Easy...
Following last week's fight with our Squier Troublecaster we're back for round two of the upgrade battle. On paper this should be such an easy job... grab some new pots and pickups from the man-drawer, pop them in and plug and play. It doesn't quite work out like that... 🤬
