I am over hauling my Epi LP Ive got new pickups in it with custom wiring and will be adding some gold hardware. I got this guitar years ago really cheap because someone tried to install new tuning machines and butchered the head stock (6 inline with 3 backwards). At the time I was not the best with tools but managed to do a somewhat acceptable job of doweling and re-drilling the tuning machine holes. It worked but wasn't pretty. Long story short (kinda late now) I plan on re-doing the job, but much better now that I have tools and some experience. I was thinking, while I'm fixing and refinishing the headstock, of adding binding to the headstock. The neck and body are bound and the headstock looks odd to me without it. I don't think there will be an issue, but I always like to get second opinions on this board from some of the more experienced people. I plan on doing a single ply of cream to match the rest of the guitar, so not much material will be taken away. I am also considering reshaping the headstock as I have always hated the Epi shape, it just seems a little too lumpy looking.
P.S. I know there may be a person or 2 who is wondering why I am putting all this work into an Epi. I've got a Gibson V as my main guitar, but also a few that have sentimental value. The Epi sounds great and plays great as well as having a lot of sentimental value, so no one needs to tell me to save up for a better guitar.
