Members _pete_ Posted August 18, 2007 Members Share Posted August 18, 2007 The originals look a little out of place IMHO. I like the Wilkinson bridge... Had it on a Johnson tele once. I may replace the saddles only though since the bridge has Fender stamped on it. That's the one I bought. GFS sells the entire bridge for less than anyone else sells the saddles alone for. The chrome bridge was out of stock when I bought it so I had to get a black bridge. I just used the saddles myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chrome bridge was out of stock when I bought it so I had to get a black bridge. I just used the saddles myself. It's still out of stock, yup. Since the saddles are the same I may as well also get the black one, hadn't thought of that! Do the old screws fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArKay Posted August 18, 2007 Author Members Share Posted August 18, 2007 beautiful guitar, congrats..how's it play?? Thanks. I have buzz on the higher frets since there is a lot of neck relief. Hoping to get it set-up tomorrow. But so far it feels a little weird since I have only been playing my Schecter for the last 5 weeks. The neck will take some getting used to (for ME), so do the small frets.

Do the old screws fit? Yep. I used the original chrome screws instead of the black screws that came with the bridge. I almost used the black bridge on mine but I like the contrast of the chrome bridge with the black body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Joranges Posted August 19, 2007 Members Share Posted August 19, 2007 ^ 57'? Looks just like mine back at home. My night started with a curiosity of how a LPB strat/tele would look with anything-but-white-pickguard. Then it just spun into a crazy obsession with browsing for blue guitars. Personally, I've been thinking about this all night: Or maybe I'll just opt with this one and take the body : ..or a Bonnie Raitt signature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
