I do believe that with Glendale I've gotten what I paid for. High quality products and great service. They're the best bridge plates and saddles I've used. When someone says that they're the "Best", that's generally what they mean. It's the best they've used. Of course, YMMV.

Also, I have no understanding of how you're using the word prospective.
1) Thanks for minimalizing my total 30 + years of playing / modding and in the last 6 year building about 15 Guitar into terms describing that sum as "all little more than" anything. I can tell you I have solid confidence with regards my experience and results in my electric guitar building and opinions. So now I will take the polite off projecting on this issue. [yea, that was me attempting polite ;)]

Anyone that thinks that piece of steel, a counterpart of the original $8.99 [at current market] 'actual' implementation / part, [not withstanding the difference in pickup orientation] has more money than sense IMO. So being I do not, I am certainly short on that prospective, especially lately. Short? I meant money, and my own prospective is that I in fact have sense as it pertains to the issue of a Tele bridge on both a builder and player level.

I surely understand what 'best' means in pretty much any context. I have to say your reply / reiteration 'it simply being the best' without addressing an obvious quest/requests for an opinion of which aspects may be considered as contributing to it superiority leaves me unconvinced.

Prospective = what you think/believe/ have convinced yourself
