Hipshot Fixed Bridge?

[Empty Pockets]

aaaaaaahhhhhhhh

I'm about to order the body for my Warmoth and I need to know: Is the Hipshot bridge worth it? How should I have the body drilled to fit it? Wouldn't a normal string-thru hardtail bridge do the same job?

Please explain this to me, and soon 'cuz I wanna do this by tonight...

It's worth it...but is just as good as a $30 Fender bridge?

What?

I like them better than stock fender stuff. They're thicker and billeted instead of forged.

I was just about to order some supplies for a guitar I'm buiding and was planning on getting the Hipshot. I've heard good things about them an like the fact that they are machined from brass.
