・Wiring has been re-routed
・The mini-switches for each pickup have been changed to tap/series (in-line)
・The coil protection tape on the neck dummy coil has been removed, and the soldering has been redone
・The bridge saddles, pickguard, backplate, and strap pins have been replaced
・The battery compartment has been replaced, and a cover made of the same pearloid same as the back panel has been added
