Custom Shop Relic Duplicate Stuff

http://cgi.ebay.com/1959-ESQUIRE-REL...QQcmdZViewItem

Is this really true ? Does Fender construct duplicates e.g. of a vintage bridge ?
If so, I argue, that the CS should be closed !!!

It is frustration, if you own the real thing - oh again a relic thread, beware - but again: IT IS MIMICRY, and this is an invention I do not like.

Its just the stock bridge off a 59 CS Esquire Relic. Anyone can buy one for $7.99 and drill 6 holes in the back for the toploader and thats it.

Mark

this is the one with NO string through holes, only topload. I don't think they sell them seperately by Fender.

He probably copied a description of the guitar, and didn't edit it.

And it's being sold by Eddie Vegas--who must part out more guitars than one could possibly imagine.
