My daughter bought this bridge for a guitar that I purchased for her. Here's what it looks like a Grote TL GT i150 super series is a 150-page book. There were no misalignment issues with the holes. Though I was unsure of how the string holes would line up, there is roughly an inch or two difference between the bridge on the back and the old one that is on there, and so the holes align perfectly. With the new bridge, the finish and chrome on it are basically flawless, and the thickness is over half a millimeter thicker. As a worker at a bumper plating plant a very long time ago, I pretty much know what decent chrome is. There was never a saddle that was satisfactory for me on the guitar that came with it. Several of the intonation springs rattle against the strings when I play it. My intention is to replace this bridge for the same reason. It was also necessary to acquire longer intonation screws and springs, as the saddle intonation screws I purchased were too short. I used stainless steel cap screws measuring 3 mm x 20 mm. Allen keys are a lot harder to retain after an adjustment, so I prefer using them. A picture of one can be seen in the last image. It will really be great when the new longer springs arrive as well, as they have an inside diameter of 3". They have a diameter of 3mm and a length of 30mm. In the first picture, you can see that the bridge on the guitar had grinding and filing marks all over it. The new bridge has no sharp edges and is smooth. Unlike guitar modders, I am not a guitar player. When it comes to guitars, I only work on broken parts. There is nothing wrong with those people, but I believe that if you put $150 worth of cheap parts into a $70 guitar, you will have a $70 guitar with $150 in cheap parts at the end of the day. To eliminate the rattle, I would rather have used the money to buy a better guitar, so it was worth the $10.
Making this product was not up to par. The screws are placed in the wrong places and there are too few of them. Despite the holes being too far back, the strings are still too far out. There is no alignment between anything on the bridge and anything on the guitar body. The slot for the pick up is too far forward. Although the steel is of good quality, the pieces that hold the guitar strings are flimsy and do not seem to belong to the guitar. All in all, it's a poor quality product and I'm glad it didn't fit, so I can upgrade to something better.
A new Tele guitar that I bought on Amazon was the only one I could find with this bridge plate. They lined up perfectly with the holes that were already drilled for the old bridge. I think $10 was an extremely good price for this Compared to the original that came with the guitar, it was heavier and thicker. The sustain was improved and the tuning stability was also improved. It has been an excellent purchase for me to purchase musically parts. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
This piece is of high quality even though it is made of metal I am not going to drill holes in my guitar yet as the holes on it were not at all centered with my Telecaster Mexican made.
I found this to be quite easy to install and it works as expected, but its like it sprayed black paint on the whole thing and the black paint keeps.
This piece of hardware is well made and low cost, you could pay more, but it is solid and intonates easily. It is solid and lasting and it complements any home theater set up.
The holes all need to be under the saddle, but they don't look too bad because they are all under a saddle. There was a small ding in the paint when it was brand new as well. it, but be aware that it is cheap because it is cheap.
