    If my memory serves me right, I think it was about Au$25.00 or so, I bought it from my local Top End Pro Music Shop earlier this year.


    Before I traded my old Mexican Strat for the Chibson SG, I replaced the original bridge with a Chrome Super Vee Bladerunner bridge and it seemed like quite a nice piece of hardware, it definitely had a much smoother feel to it than the original bridge.


    On the Full Contact Bridge installed on my Gold Strat, there's a set of six threaded screws on each string saddle with a small V-notch that the strings sit in, to adjust the individual string height, you simply rotate the small threaded screws one way or the other, each string saddle also has a small grub screw used to lock the string-height adjustments in place, not only that, there are another set of 6 grub screws to lock the string saddles in place after the individual string-intonation has been set as well as six screws for adjusting the intonation, pretty involved, but actually not that hard to set up, about the same as a traditional Strat bridge.
