The HWY1 comes stock with a 3 saddle vintage bridge design. You could probably put on a 6 saddle if you really wanted to but it does come stock with a 3 saddle.

Its the exact same bridge as used on the 50's Classic MIM Tele its made by ping. Its like the 52ri bridge which is made by Gotoh. Both are identical in look and sound.
