New Genuine Fender®
Custom Cut-Off Telecaster® / Esquire® Vintage Type Half Bridge Plate Drilled for Top Loading.
I start with a Standard Fender 50's Style “Pat.Pend.” Chrome Bridge Plate that fits all Vintage 60's, 70's, 80's and on up to current Reissues, MIM, CIJ, MIJ and Newer Highway One's® with (4) mounting screw holes and "Strings thru Body". NOTE: Does not fit the American Standard/Series. 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 is modified by Cutting it off just behind the Bridge Pickup mounting screw Holes for Maximum picking clearance near the Bridge Pickup. All of the outer surfaces and rim have a shiny appearance, and the inner surface, where the Saddles mount, has a Bead-Blasted Matte finish.
The Bridge Plate has also 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 is completely Ambidextrous. It can be perfectly mounted on both Right Hand and Left Hand Guitars.
This Bridge requires the Tele Bridge Pickup to be “Body-Mounted” similar to the original mounting method used on the 50’s Telecaster Neck Pickup, but with (3) screws instead of (2). Body mounting the Bridge Pickup on a Telecaster produces a “FATTER” tone from that pickup.
“With that pickup in the wood like that, you get this resonance and this fattened-up lower end and low midrange that’s really cool” ~ G.E. Smith
This Bridge Plate will accept any Stock or "Aftermarket" 3-pc. Saddle Set.
Mounting screws are not included. An instruction sheet on how to set intonation is in the package.
I also have Complete BW Signature Half Bridges with a set of Custom Fitted "Angle Compensated" Saddles.
