I also have a Benson guitar, however it's seen some intermittent heavy use (with little-to-no skill progression hahaha) since my dad got it about 15 years ago. I've never maintained it or even replaced the strings. I get fret buzz on the G string and a couple of the pickups also appear to be very slightly rusting, as well as some discolouration on the metal frets themselves which will most likely also need replacing. I want to have a go at replacing most of the guitar but have no experience doing so and also can't really afford to give it to a technician (would probably be worth just buying another guitar in that case!). Would somebody be able to point me in the direction of a good source to get quality parts cheaply? And maybe any other advice on how to make the same guitar as OP better?
