Post subject:  Routing new pickup cavity in newly purchased guitar?

I’m fixing to purchase a brand new Charvel USA Custom Shop San Dimas that has a price tag of $2,800. It is the perfect guitar in my eyes, except it only has one bridge pickup. That’s the only issue with it. I want it to have the neck p’up too,

If I buy it, I will most definitely be having further modding done to it to fit a neck Humbucker on it. Whether that’s doing it myself or having a pro do it for me.

I don’t have the tools or know how to do it, so I would rather a seasoned builder do it for me being that it’s a high-priced, high-end custom shop Charvel.

Would anyone here be willing to take this on?

If so, I would not really want to wait very long for it. I need the turn around to be fairly swift as I plan to use this guitar in upcoming sessions and videos.

Also, I would like to have the electronics rewired (if necessary to be able to split the humbuckers into single coils, instead of direct wiring.

Can anyone help me with this, and if so, what would the charge be?

It’s an easy thing to do. I charge $50 to rout for a pickup.
