I'm replacing the pickups (SD '59s), pots (CTS), and caps (orange drops) in my ES120. It appears that the CTS pot posts are larger than the original posts so I need to widen them to 9.4 mm. I've never done a mod like this before...fortunately for me I have a good friend who is an electrical engineer who is happy to help with the wiring and soldering.
Before I drill out the existing holes I thought I'd consult the wisdom of the forum...those of you who have done a similar mod...did you drill with a 9mm bit and then rasp out the extra .4 mm? And did you take any precautions to prevent chipping of the finish?
Thanks.
