Re: should i get these

If you've got 50 bucks you don't know what to do with and just have to spend it then sure get 'em.

Otherwise Billy has his 'generic' RSguitar caps that IMO are 100% fine. Spend your money on a nicer bridge and tail piece, pickups, saddles, POTS etc

just putting those vintage repro caps on will not, IMO, make you that much of an upgrade.

If you want what's best for your guitar, get the RS Modern Upgrade kit. It will do more for your guitar than "just" the bumblebee caps will. For about the same price.

No one will know that you enlarged the holes unless you tell them......it's not that big a deal...

Re: should i get these

the enlarging of the whole isn't really enlarging it's really just sanding down really. I mean it really is no issue what so ever besides even if you make a scratch in your top it will be hidden considering you will have one of those little metal rings around the whole (no clue what the actual english word for it is.
