OK, forget that I said "really fast", the action on the AV-325 just isn't up to par yet...so, I grabbed this other guitar I had lying around that plays a little bit better & just kept the tempo sane. Hope your wife enjoys it :wink: :

Fast enough.
Mrs Bulger was most impressed with your effort.
She said somethig about being able to picture Captain Parmenter and Wrangler Jane dancing along to your playing.
She doubts if Duffy would be able to keep up with the pace of the tune.
Thanks Mr Squid (the child bride loved your efforts on F Troop).

It's been way too quiet here, all I ever get when I log on is a bunch of spammers to ban. So, here's something fun to discuss: a black hard-tail top-load Fender bridge for my AV325 project. Doesn't look quite as nice as Barry's, but I think it'll do just fine.

Enjoy:

Looks good to me!
It's gotta be an improvement over those barrel saddles. :roll:

Not bad...this time I logged on to three actual messages, and only two spambots. Much better ratio.

More pics as more progress happens, I promise. If this works I'll post up details shortly after buying a few more of these bridges... :D

Send me the detalis of the bridge if you can please.
I have three guitars here that could do with the same treatment.
Cheers
