The star of the show is the neck and the nitro lacquer body. I also installed a pickguard and am selling off the EVH pickguard, red neck pickup, etc....
the red pickup is functional by the way - it actually sounds good.

The EVH Relic is basically a Charvel. it has more in common with modern Charvels than strats....
Also keep in mind that the pickups were deep to fit in the pickup cavity when mounted to a pickguard - at least with the pickup height that I preferred. Also the pickup cavity wasn't centered w/ the pickguard I had, so the pickup wouldn't go down into the cavity when the pickguard was in-position..... I had to permanently rout the body with a router to get the pickups to fit... Not sure if your pickups will be this way. I was in the minority and wanted the guitar for the neck and nitro lacquer body (for this price), not for the EVH frankenstein appearance, so I didn't care about routing the body out.
Eddie would have applauded doing modifications to a guitar to make it your own, so if you're willing - have at it!
