converting black beauty to ace model?

[Alex Moody]

Heres where I am at with my Ace clone, I am getting my Dimarzios together and going to route for the third middle pickup.

Right now it has the stock pickups, but I have already changed all the hardware out for nickel and the plastics to cream, so I am on the way for this one.

My last Ace conversion was a 73 Les Paul Custom that was used when I was in a tribute band for a couple years in the 90's.

I think conversions are better than the signature models just because the headstock and fretboard inlays looked kinda cheesy to me.

That will look hot when you're done.Very "Dynasty" tour
