It's for a tele... but it's a strat part..

Just bought a 72 deluxe body, and the pre-drilled bridge holes are meant for a vintage strat hardtail. I was just wondering who uses the callaham vintage hardtail strat bridge, and what they think about it.

I have a Callaham hardtail bridge in my one Strat . I can't help but think that you will like it . A little pricey , but worth it to me .

Well it was $63.00 on Callaham's site, and i can't find an american strat bridge for less than $53... I figured $10 more ain't nothing for something not "mass produced"

Shame on me . Are you looking for a top load ? The Callaham that I have will not top load .

'72 Deluxe ain't a top loader. If the other Callaham stuff I have tried (2 Strat Trem bridges, 2 Tele bridges & saddles, knobs, neck plate, etc...) is anything to go by you'll love his hardtail Strat bridge...

it's a string through! I'm not however agains't getting something that is top loader though... the affect it has on some of the strings might be something I'd like. Thanks for those links sjtalon!
