Actually I've stopped gigging these days, so the last three guitars purchased did not have factory electronics on board.

If you really want ES2 in that guitar, the factory can add them later. They upgrade from older ES systems all the time. It won't be the most cost effective approach, but you will get everything you wanted.
Well I don't play out anywhere right now but I plan on it. I guess it is something to think about as far as having an aftermarket pickup installed. I am just not very familiar with pickups and have just used what came with the guitar.
