does anyone know if EMG 81 and 85 pickups will fit, or do i need to make
mods? Or just buy a new guitar that WILL fit? Probably a stupid question
but i'm a beginner, and i need a new sound.

It will be easier to fit EMG humbuckers into a guitar that already has
humbuckers fitted.
Otherwise, you'll have to do a lot of modification ____________________

ok, what mods would i have to do? i asked someone else and they said that i
would only have to make the pick-up holes bigger, then it would be fine.
And I already bought the EMGs so I can't exactly buy a new guitar.

| Yeah, you'd have to cut bigger holes in the scratchplate, and you may even
have to cut bigger holes in the body ____________________

nope, just the scratchplate, underneath it is just one ginourmous hole.
Which is kind of weird. Would it be stupid to cut the pick-up holes bigger?
I don't want to mess up my guitar. Basically, if you were in a money
situation like me, would you do it?

I'd do it.
You could always buy a pre cut scratchplate ____________________
