▲ 4 r/Guitar

Trying to decide whether to modify a vintage guitar.

I recently picked up a '77 Greco strat for super cheap. It's a fantastic guitar that has clearly been through the ringer and still plays great. It's covered in scratches and dings, the tuners have been replaced, and it looks like the electronics have already had a repair job done on them.

I'm in love with it, but I kinda want to mod it a little. I want to put a period-accurate Maxon hambucker (with a new pick guard, I won't butcher the old one) in the bridge position, and change the 3 way selector to a 5 way.

On one hand, its an old guitar that's mostly original aside from the tuners and it's fucking rad as-is. On the other hand, it's a cheap old beater that leaves a little to be desired.

How do I resolve these two warring states of mind? Any advice?

Whataburger launching a new "chicken platform" in June

The whatachicken sandwhich is one of the least ordered items on our menu. The number 11 isn't particularly popular either. in an attempt to revitalize interest in said products a new "chicken platform" is being launched. The brioche bun and the whatachicken patty are being retired. They will be replaced by a potato bun and a new and improved chicken patty. We will serve a cheaper variant that has only pickles, and the deluxe variant which will have all the same veggies as before. Both variations will come with no sauce, but I believe we are keeping the whatasauce around for the grilled chicken. All of our chicken sandwhiches will now come in little foil bags instead of wrapping paper.

In addition, there will be a new LTO chicken sandwich with a garlic-y honey chili sauce and "cheese spread" (it's basically pimento), no veggies.
