When I order my TL kit (I have one of the newer GTL kits in mind), I'll likely upgrade pickups to Toneriders and the tuners to mini locking rotomatics.
I'm also considering upgrades such as a Wilkinson string through body bridge and maybe other 3rd party wiring components.
My question is, am I right to assume that it's not worth clicking the 'I don't need hardware' option? Couldn't things like plate and pick guard screws, neck plate etc easily cost what I'm saving anyway? How have you more experienced builders dealt with this?
