High-quality guitar bodies, neck, pickups, wiring, and hardware make a bigger difference than the logo on the headstock.

Our ‘Ashtray’ Bridge is a perfect upgrade for Tele style guitars. It features a high quality steel base plate along with compensated brass saddles. 

Strings can be strung either through the back of the body, or Jimmy Page style top-loaded through the rear of the bridge, which reduces the tension slightly for easier string-bending . Includes 4 mounting screws, Allen wrench

 Spend your money on tone-critical components (pickups, bridge, tuners) not a loigo on your headstock!!!


We channel the original spirit and amazing designs of LEO FENDER—modular, serviceable, and built for players. 

The beauty of the Leo Fenders Telecaster and Stratocaster designs are exactly that: bolt-on necks, simple routing, and parts you can swap without a luthier degree. His design invites customization. 

In 1964 once CBS  (Columbia Broadcasting System) large-scale mass production took over at Fender Musical Instruments Corporation, cost efficiencies inevitably became Fenders primary concern—cheaper pots, generic pickups, inferior wood/multi-piece bodies, etc. impacted the playability/collectability. 

Guitar Monkey allows you to avoid paying for branding, marketing, and mass-production compromise.
