Just like Varakeef said above. I started off using the "fully loaded" Hipshots like you pictured, and on most teles I put them on, i found it worked MUCH better to shim the body side of the neck pocket to get more of an angle for better "down force".

These days I just use a B/G bender with a D-tuner, except for the one that I added an A bender to. I found thru the years that I just didn't do that much in open tunings.
