The aluminum bridge that comes with a B16 can really thin out the sound of a guitar.
(Plus, they are made for a wound G, so to get it right, you have add/remove aluminum so an unwound string will work).
The Antiquity really shines in this guitar, it has the tone to get past the thinness and really ring out.
It still doesn't sound like a true Tele, closer to a Gretch or Ric. GREAT for rhythm work.
Tom Petty would use it all night.
I take this one to almost every gig, I love it.

Here is a YT. Don't ask what is going on with my left arm...I have no idea. ;-)
