Where I can learn how to modify/fix my guitar? I wasn't sure where to put this topic, sorry if I made a mistake. Anyway, I live near Sunway College so is there a place close to it that can teach me? Thanks!

if you just want to learn how to mod guitars...no one really teaches that.
almost everyone is self-taught and learn from messing around.

^hmm ok if that's the case then is there a site where they show you how to do the things? The thing is I'm new to it and I'm afraid that I might be doing something wrong. I mean, it's not like there are instructions on how to install the humbuckers when they come out of the box...do they?
