A quick call out to anyone who has used a non-kit bridge on a Bitbull Tele! What's the spacing 10.5 (52mm) or 10.8 (54mm).
Adam is out of chrome kits and matching a 21 fret neck and ash body for me, I told him I was only going to use part of the kit. Unfortunately my RealTone cart now exceeds Wife Approval Factor.
RealTone Tele bridges are all 54mm, I bought a second Hand Squier Thinline (to replace my original 72) and the original bridge was wonky and the strings fell off the fretboard. Replaced with a Gotoh 102 (10.5mm)hardtail and it plays superbly, probably better than my original.
Paint is on it's way from a Melbourne auto paint supplier who sell on eBay. Do I have to go that route for a bridge?
PS: Anybody see a natural '72 Thinline, with a hole on the lower horn for a lefty and a neck stamped 3 DEC 72, my flatmate Kenny disappeared with around 1997!

Reason: Gotoh string spacing
