Are Tune-o-matic bridges made for Set-Necks only?!!

Re: Are Tune-o-matic bridges made for Set-Necks only?!!

instead of angling my neck i recessed the tom into the body by about 0.25", its a cool custom look too

Now that sounds freaking sweet. I'm a big fan of the TOM bridges, too bad all my strats have tremelos, or I would give that a shot.

The best option is surely a recessed tune-o-matic. Pay attention to the "stickyness" reported, it may be an issue. If you don't recess the bridge, you may end up with that very large string angle on the high register of the fretboard... not advisable... :smoker:

And always pay attention to the string spacing when experiencing with bridges... I didn't... :smack:
