I had a weird little gig recently, the logistics of which had me reaching WAY back into my closet for a Cort Steinberger copy. (No graphite, appears to be 1 piece of maple under all that paint) After filing down some sharp frets, I got it somewhat playable, but it's time for some kind of upgrade. How much of an upgrade is the question of the day?
New pups and frets on the Cort could go a long way. Looking at Steinbergers, the new ones don't seem of that great quality (Spirit? Synapse?? MusicYo???) and "Newburg" seems to be the new "Pre-CBS" as a synonym for EXPENSIVE. Get a Moses neck and Warmoth blank and proceed from there? Anyone have experience with headless axes? Thoughts? Feelings? Successes? Setbacks?
