GFI with MSA changer

Would it be possible to modify a student GFI by putting on an MSA neck and an MSA tuner? How much would the changer endplate have to be modified?

Hello TB. That may be very possible to do but a very bad idea. You will have ruined a very good entry level steel and end up with something that is just not right. You should sell the entry level GFI on E-BAY and use the money toward a new GFI ultra. Gene and Bob at GFI make a great steel that they will help you with it if anything goes wrong.The new models sound and play great.

John,

I have an msa changer, an msa aluminum neck, an MSA keyhead and nut, a set of msa legs and the chance to buy a gfi student model real cheap. I appreciate you feedback and am thing about what you said. ( I have a friend who has a machine shop so I am sure modifications could be made.)

What will the MSA parts give you that cannot already be achieved with the existing GFI setup?

Thank you guys you have helped me think straight and make the right decision. I was thinking about looks which would have no effect on the sound.
