Which Strat bridge sounds best to you?

[SpiderWars]

They definitely don't sound the same. Which do you prefer and why? Warning: blews will be played...just try to listen for tone.

I think it's very guitar dependent. I mostly really like the Callaham hardware, but I put one of his upgrade blocks on my AmDlx and it made the guitar completely lose all of its dynamics. For some reason that axe just sounds way better with the cheap shitty stock hardware ?‍

I’ve got a Callaham, US and MIM Strat bridges. Practically no tonal difference I notice between the two Fender bridges, they’re on different guitars and whatever differences there are between them could be any one of the differences. Regardless, the Callaham is stellar, just holding the thing you get the idea you bought something someone put effort into. Swapping it out with the Fender introduced some top end clarity, not like turning the treble up, but an overall better presence and a sharper attack.

Definitely won’t be my last Callaham.

I think shittier bridges sound more "stratty"
that's why I like Callaham
