I just put a new bridge on my B-Bender Telecaster, courtesy of Bill Callaham. I wanted to put a vintage bridge on it but didn't realize it wouldn't fit on an american standard tele. I didn't particularly want the vintage bridge as much as I wanted the barrel saddles. So there you have it, an american standard bridge with 2 compensated brass saddles for E/A and D/G and a compensated stainless steel saddle for the B/E. Haven't plugged it into my gigging rig yet, but I figure if it looks shiny, it'll sound shiny! :mrgreen:
