Thanks for the encouragement Rob. I love that about this site.

I certainly will give it a try and I might try making it string through as well. I've seen a couple of YouTube video which show how to keep the holes straight.

As you say, what's the worst that can happen? I'll have to buy another kit and try again.

Yeah Tommy, you are right about this site. I don't know where I would be without all the help that I have received from those far more knowledgeable than myself.

I like your idea of string through for a Tele. I was tempted myself but thought that without a drill press I might be pushing my luck. I will be doing an Ash Tele sometime down the line and will have to do some serious research before starting that one.

Ahh, the search for the perfect guitar, it never ends. lol.

Hey Robin where did you get the six saddle bridge?

Hi Simon, not sure if its exactly the same but I know it was genuine Fender, and I know it was from this supplier. What sucked was that the shipping cost equaled the purchase price, but at the time it was the cheapest I could find.

Might be worth doing another search as that was over 6 months ago. If i remember correctly I could have gotten a no-name one from China (with Pickup) cheaper, but wasn't sure of the dimensions. I had already bought some Tonerider Pups, which I knew fitted OEM Fender bridge.

cheers

Ah cool thanks for the info! I saw one from China but I think that might require drilling string through ferrules, which I'm pretty apprehensive about doing!
