Upgrades sound great and bottom line adds up real quick. Sticking with original Bass Tuners probably saved you at least $50 - $60 bucks.

Giving up a few of life's pleasures for a short while to help launch this project will be worth it. Happy to help out if you need a spare hand once it arrives although I think you may need to spend some quality time bonding with the behemoth whilst doing initial sanding.
