*Nods sagely* Fresh indeed; fresh steel - I can feel the cool polished surface through my screen. This unit has locking studs?

Re: New bridge day.....

Thanks....nice Schaller!
Yep locking studs indeed!
And it took away none of the sound, and I got it with the FST block, have the steelblock on my 6 hole unit, but for this guitar I thought that the black FST block would be cool...and it is, very focused fat tone in this thing!
No pingy cold stuff....
Hopefully it will just keep working, love set and forget stuff
But I am pretty sure that I'll just have no issues with this thing.
Never had any trouble with Gotoh for over 28 years now

New bridge day.....

Nice knew it had to be a Gotoh the second I saw it. I have a hard tail that I want to put to use soon.

Solid saddles ftw.

Surprised TGWIF hasn't wandered in here and crapped all over Gotoh stuff .

Yes; the Edge on my Proline is 27 years old and, apart from changed intonation screws to stainless steel ones, it's a tank :friday:.

Looks like a million dollars!

The Gotoh 510 is my current fav bridge.

Re: New bridge day.....

i think the second pic looks really sexy. killer bridge, man!

Re: New bridge day.....

Ah the wonderful Gotoh 510. Truly the best of both worlds. Peak performance and classy, understated looks. Very nice.

Re: New bridge day.....

Thanks guys, I was lucky that the brass inserts on my JB uses the same threading, I was not hot on pulling those fockers out...so I hoped that they would fit..they fortunally did!
Radius and intonation was almost spot on from the box....love that little detail.

Anyways it is very sweet thing to use, integrated itself like it has always been on the guitar...

Re: New bridge day.....

Just dropped in to make sure it was a Gotoh.

Do you get a price break from those fellas??

Re: New bridge day.....

No...but I get the usual good working hardware, and good service....
I have time on my side......over 20+ years of no fail, that is how you know!
What ever anyone feel or say about that, well that is their thing.
