Chop T

[luxxtone]

Jerry, could you tell us something about that bridge on that T?

It's one of our own Luxxtone bridges that we have fabricated. Basically a chopped rear portion of a tele bridge, thick gauge nickel plated steel with curved front edges. Saddles are just compensated brass saddles.

That is what I was thinking when I saw it. What differences in tone do you note when compared with the standard full tele bridge? Like the looks of it.

Can't really say for sure....it's a different design so you can use different pickups in the bridge position without that front mounting plate area, and it looks cool! I haven't gone through and A/B'd the bridges against eachother or anything like that.

Really like that bridge! Good work Jerry.

Have him put a MCP Detroiter or Nastee in the bridge. Nice match for the SLO....rolls back nicely and cleans up. The front pick up has a noticeable volume decrease and really sounds thick and mellow, even on a gained out SLO. 4 way PU wiring....something new to me!

(Edit)...What's the deal with the 4-way, how does it work?

Works great
