About This Listing
Joe Barden Custom Vintage style bridge for Telecaster®. The original tilt compensated bridge in Nickel finish. Includes mounting hardware. An Allparts htop-selling product. 2 and 3/16 inch string spacing. 3 and 3/8 inches top to bottom. Center of string hole to front of bridge is 3 and 3/16 inches.
The Vintage and American Standard Bridgeplate models for Telecasters™ solve all of the structural problems and intonation issues inherent in the original parts.
The heavily plated Bridgeplates are made of the same material as the original, but slightly thicker, making the plate less prone to unwanted squeal. Using the originally spec’d material insures that the vintage tone and slightly microphonic nature of your Telecaster will not be lost.
In addition, the Bridgeplate features a Danny Gatton-inspired “scoop” at the front of the treble sidewall, a tremendous aid to fingerpickers who find themselves constantly hitting the plate while playing. The Bridgeplate has two additional mounting holes at the front edge to provide secure fastening at all four corners, if desired (use of these mounting holes is optional).
The bridgeplate has 4 mounting holes at the rear. The string thru holes on the Vintage Bridgeplate model plate are located behind the mounting holes at the rear most part of the bridgeplate. In contrast, on an American Standard bridgeplate they are located just IN FRONT of the 4 mounting holes
When considering which model fits your guitar (Vintage or American Standard) consider that the string-thru hole location is a primary differentiating factor that determines which model of Bridgeplate will fit your instrument
Three compensated brass Saddles come with the Bridgeplate assembly and are also made to vintage specs, but have their adjustment holes drilled at three different angles to provide correct intonation for all six strings.
As an added feature, the outside saddles are notched under the “E” strings, like the vintage ’53 saddles. This notch helps correct the “loud outside string” problem common to many Telecasters, and adds additional height adjustment capability, while retaining an important and authentic vintage design spec.
