Re: Loads of Gear for sale
Yeah, this isn't that uncommon of an occurence on the older bridges actually. I've seen many Les Pauls with bent pins.....the pins don't usually break though. A softer or defective piece of metal must have been use or something. Put a good one on there and it should be fine IMO.

Jumpskirt, it no more reflects on the quality of the guitar than a crappy set of tires reflects on the quality of your entire car. This is a rare but not unheard of occurence with this style bridge and this is the reason that Gibson eventually went with the Nashville bridge with threaded inserts. Usually though the wood gives..in this case that doesn't seem to be the issue...just the pins themselves.:bigthumb:
Erik, Thanks Bro! :bigthumb:
Amir...no more model packs other than what came loaded into it
