It's definetly a slippery slope. I bought an Epiphone Dot back in the late 90's(Korean) and never played it until 4 months ago. Since I started playing it I've done some mods as follows.

I first installed new pickups, Gibson 57s along with a Dr Vintage early spec wiring harness. This made a world of difference in sound. I then wanted better playability and brought it to well known luithier in Chicago for a pro set up. After consulting with him I had a bone nut installed and had the guitar refretted. All I can say is wow, this thing sounds and plays awesome. The fret board is just unbelievable. I'll next have a new bridge installed. I've got a few bucks in to it, but I really like the guitar.

So it can definetly be a slippery slope.

Enjoy

Dean
