Members dpizappi Posted December 14, 2011 Members Share Posted December 14, 2011 I am using one of these now, they recommended it to me when I replaced my cheap mim bridge. As you can see the saddles are angled. http://www.allparts.com/Joe-Barden-Vintage-Style-Bridge-p/tb-5140-001.htm What do you think of that bridge? I got a partscaster Tele in a trade and I've been thinking about replacing the cheepo bridge with one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MrNixon Posted December 14, 2011 Members Share Posted December 14, 2011 Wish I bought a Tele-Sonic while they were cheap :edit: Anyone remember how much James Iha's sold for on ebay? I once played lead guitar for the lead singer of Nine Days two or three years ago, and he brought a Tele-Sonic to rehearsal once...It wasn't as nice as i hoped it would have looked... and the guy was a little standoffish, so i didn't even think of asking him to play it. Needless to say, in his hands, it was very underwhelming. I'd love to run into one again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you can see the saddles are angled. http://www.allparts.com/Joe-Barden-Vintage-Style-Bridge-p/tb-5140-001.htm Yeah, and it has the added feature of the cut-away side, which some players prefer. $65 for the whole bridge? That doesn't seem too bad at all really. How's the intonation with the angled saddles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members finboy Posted December 14, 2011 Members Share Posted December 14, 2011 an ADH (AndrewDoesHair)/Stereordinary co-developed project this isn't a finished pic of the body/hardware, but when it gets here it will have aged hardware/pick guard, a shortscale conversion bound/dot neck, and will be tuned ebgdDE with the standard d moved to the 5th string location, and the 4th string being one step below the high e. fun times.

I'm really interested in hearing some opinions on those Mark Jenny Telecasters. I know you only had them relic your guitar, but do you have any idea what his parts are like?

I know you only had them relic your guitar, but do you have any idea what his parts are like? Have you heard anything about how good or bad it is to buy a kit and put it together yourself? i actually had him supply the most of the hardware (aged) as well. i supplied the warmoth neck--which i sent to him to finish/relic. he supplied the allparts body--since i was buying all the hardware too--he basically drilled all the holes as well. but i basically assembled everything, because i had the pickups, electronics, etc. it was pretty simple at that point. this was a while ago though, before he started doing full kits, etc. it turned out excellent, great guitar for sure! i just checked out his ebay page--looks like his Jazzmasters aren't using the "fender" branded trem/tailpiece. so i would definitely ask him what parts he's using.
