New Genuine Fender®
Telecaster® / Esquire® Vintage '52 Type "Pat.Pend." Bridge Plate Drilled for Top Loading.

This is a Standard Fender 50's Style Chrome Bridge Plate that fits all Vintage & Classic 50's,60's, 70's, 80's and on up to current Reissues, MIM, CIJ, MIK, MIJ, Squier Classic Vibe's, Highway One's®,Deluxe Nashville's, Classic Player Baja's, American Special and the new American Professional, with (4) mounting screw holes and "Strings thru Body".   NOTE: Does not fit the American Standard or American Deluxe. This Bridge Plate is also a perfect fit on the Peavey Omniac. The Screw Spread Dimension is 2-9/16" center to center to the (2) outer-most holes. The String Spread Dimension is the Standard 2-1/8 inches "E" to "E".

The Bridge Plate has been modified by drilling (6) additional String holes in the rear Flange, so the Plate can be used as a Top Loading Plate as on a '59 Model Telecaster.

This Bridge Plate will accept any Stock or "Aftermarket" 3-pc. Saddle Set.

"If you like the tone of the great Tele® pickers like Danny Gatton and Roy Buchanan, you need a three-way bridge. Nothing else matches the sustain and tone achieved, as when the multiplied forces of two strings per saddle are applied."

Mounting screws are not included. An instruction sheet on how to re-set your intonation is in the package.

I get so many requests to add (2) extra mounting holes to the "Front" end of the Bridge.
This is an option that you can add to your Bridge or Bridge Plate at the time of ordering by purchasing that option in my ebay store.

Note: The current surface finish on the “Face” of these plates,

  as they come from FENDER:

          High Polish on the area in front of the pickup, and Matte

        finish on the area behind the pickup (where the Saddles sit).

    The outer “Wall” is all polished.
