    I'm not 100% sure, but I'd guess they're just using left-handed bridges. It worked well enough for SRV...

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

      Doh! I didn't even think of that.

        He’s correct. “Reverse Tele bridge” is a futile search, but “left handed” yields a mountain of results.

          I am always a fan of this and additionally anytime the low e string has a longer length to the tuning peg from the nut the more I like it.
          The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

                    And I bought one with a humbucker in the bridge, didn't I?

                      Make sure you try a left-handed humbucker. It's amazeballs.

                        I was looking at those. I like the Hipshot variant also, and they're close to the same price.

                          hipshot looks good, and you can top load or thru body, which is a nice option. dont think the callaham can be top loaded, thought that bridge is a work of art

                            I think that Callaham leans toward "vintage", in general. (Which is cool.) Mine will definitely be a "modern" Tele. Especially after I get my wiring scheme in it.

                              callaham does lean vintage, but also uses different materials than many other manufacturers. its well machined from good stock but nothing too far from the best of what was made years ago

                                They used to be big on the cryo treatment process, but I don't see them mentioning it anymore. I guess they decided that it wasn't all it was "cracked up" to be.
