If it stays in tune then the only thing I would bother with is thepickups. You can go every which way with them. What are youlooking for? What is lacking in you 'tar.
What kind of amp have you?

Then I'd upgrade the tuners first. That is one area that islacking on most guitars. It won't make it sound better or lookcooler but good tuners will make it stay in tune longer.

What kind of nut is on your guitar now?
A graphite nut is supposed to be self lubricating and useful if you usea trem. alot. Lots of people think it has bad tone.
Grover tuners are supposed to be good. Do your's look like theyused the cheapest they make or do the look and feel like good quality stuff?
Here/s a link to a picture of one of my guitars. I built it from akit and will either replace most of the hardware someday or just replacethe guitar.
