What does me turning 35 have to do with a bridge install?
This is something I never could have imagined myself doing. Taking a drill to a guitar? Measuring things out myself to install an extremely (if not THE MOST) important part of a guitar.
Never have I ever dreamed I would be popping new tuners on and lining them up and drilling things out, soldering, installing crazy wiring mods in guitars.
Even as recent as just a few months ago I'd have been terrified.... really..... but here we are - 35 (close enough to it)
I can't believe how far I've come in ways, and how far honestly I may have strayed away in other aspects of life.
Or maybe you just get better at seeing your faults the more you look, along with positives? I don't know about all that but....
I installed a new bridge on my tele. I thought it would be a direct swap, as I measured everything out I possibly could, but mounting screws were in a completely different locaiton, requiring me to measure, mount, and drill this thing myself.
I will post pictures soon, it's freaking late here, I just had to keep pushing until i got it done.
The feeling of achievement is immense right now.
I know it is a small/simple task to many here, but this is a huge step for me.
