GTM Thick Plate Ashtray Telecaster Bridge Vintage Fender Style (Nickel)

This Ashtray Telecaster Bridge is in the vintage style used on early '50s Fender Esquire, Broadcaster, Nocaster and Telecaster guitars but with a thicker base plate.

The lip around an ashtray bridge is formed from a flat piece of steel so can be quite thin on some bridges for ease of manufacture and the strings can cause the plate to vibrate, this bridge beefs up the thickness for added rigidity to reduces the chance of feedback in the bridge pickup that is mounted to the same plate. Not losing energy through the plate can also help to increase sustain and vibration transfer to the guitar body. The vintage style bridge is complete with uncompensated plain brass barrel saddles with slot head height adjustment. The bridge can be strung top loaded through the back of the bridge or string through body mounted as normal. The four mounting screw holes 'in front' of the string through holes (closer to the neck) fits the standard vintage Fender Telecaster spacing and made in Mexico spacing (will not fit USA made Fender guitars with the mounting screws 'behind' the string through holes). Please note mounting screws are not included.
